Q: Where are the oceans most polluted?


Read this paragraph and choose the correct option from the provided answers:

The oceans are most polluted along coasts. Why do you think that's the case? Of course, it's because most pollution enters the oceans from the land. Runoff and rivers carry the majority of pollution into the ocean. Many cities dump their wastewater , water mixed with waste, directly into coastal waters. In some parts of the world, raw sewage and trash may be thrown into the water ( Figure below ). Coastal water may become so polluted that people get sick if they swim in it or eat seafood from it. The polluted water may also kill fish and other ocean life.

 Choices:

- in warmer waters

- on the ocean floor

- along reefs

- along coasts


A:
along coasts
