How does polluted water affect plants?

The biggest danger that can come from watering plants with polluted water is that they can die because of several pollutants. Herbicides are substances that are completely lethal to plants. If herbicides are in water, watering plants with it can/will lead to death. Mud, or other debris from construction sites, that has been partially dissolved in water, can smother plants and then kill them. Too much salt (sodium chloride) in water can also lead to plant death. Watering plants with polluted water can also disrupt the process of photosynthesis within a plant. Photosynthesis is the method in which plants use carbon dioxide and water to produce glucose. Glucose is the way that plants get their energy. Polluted water can stop a plant from absorbing carbon dioxide effectively. It can also affect the amount of water available for use. If the pollutants in the water make it acidic, it can deprive the nutrients for the plant out of the soil; and this will leave the plant with little nourishment. Acidic polluted water can/will harm trees' bark, leaves and *root hairs* of many smaller plants. *root hairs*: helps plants absorb water from the environment. Acid rain can/will also prevent plants from absorbing water effectively. Acid rain also can/will deprive nutrients from the soil as well as destroy the bark and leaves from trees.
