Question

3 - indoor air pollution
learning objective: determine key aspects of indoor air quality issues.
select the false statement about indoor air pollution.
a.) the inefficient burning of combustibles is a common example of indoor air pollution.
b.) decreasing circulation reduces indoor air pollution.
c.) pesticides can contribute to indoor air pollution.
d.) indoor air pollution can come from mobile, stationary, and natural sources.

Explanation:

Increasing air - circulation helps in reducing indoor air pollution by bringing in fresh air and removing pollutants. Decreasing circulation would trap pollutants, increasing indoor air pollution. Inefficient combustion of combustibles releases harmful gases like carbon monoxide, contributing to indoor air pollution. Pesticides can release volatile organic compounds and other harmful substances indoors. Indoor air pollution sources can be mobile (e.g., people moving and releasing particles), stationary (e.g., stoves), and natural (e.g., radon seeping in).

Answer:

B. Decreasing circulation reduces indoor air pollution.
