Question

why does noise pollution affect aquatic animals? the animals dont like our music. the barking of pet dogs attract them to the shore. it disrupts sonar and echolocation which rely on sound.

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

To determine why noise pollution affects aquatic animals, we analyze each option:

  • The first option ("The animals don't like our music") is incorrect as it anthropomorphizes and is not a scientific reason.
  • The second option ("The barking of pet dogs attract them to the shore") is incorrect as pet dog barking is not a primary source of noise pollution affecting aquatic animals broadly, and the attraction logic is flawed.
  • The third option ("It disrupts sonar and echolocation which rely on sound") is correct. Many aquatic animals (like whales, dolphins) use sonar/echolocation for navigation, communication, and hunting. Noise pollution interferes with these sound - based systems, disrupting their behavior.

Answer:

It disrupts sonar and echolocation which rely on sound.
