How are water quality standards determined? Distinguish between water quality criteria pollutants and maximum contaminant levels.

How are water quality standards determined? Distinguish between water quality criteria pollutants and maximum contaminant levels.
An example of water quality is the presence of harmful bacteria or pollutants in a body of water, which can affect its safety for drinking or recreational purposes. Water quality can be measured by assessing factors such as pH levels, turbidity, dissolved oxygen, and levels of contaminants like heavy metals or pesticides.
The air quality in a busy city is typically poorer due to higher levels of pollution from traffic, industry, and human activity. In contrast, the air quality in a forest is usually cleaner and fresher, with higher levels of oxygen and lower levels of pollutants, as trees help filter the air and absorb pollutants. Forests also have a higher concentration of natural compounds that contribute to air quality, such as phytoncides.
The River Yamuna is harmful to animals and humans because it contains sewage and other pollutants. There are also other pollutants like metals that are toxic.
Bioaccumulation
The purpose of air monitoring stations is to measure and monitor the quality of air in a specific area. These stations collect data on various pollutants and provide information on air quality to the public and relevant authorities. The data from these stations helps in understanding the presence and levels of pollutants, identifying sources of pollution, and implementing measures to improve air quality and protect public health.
In the area of air quality: (1) More than half of the large cities now meet air-quality standards; (2) emissions of common air pollutants have dropped by an average of 24 percent; and (3) blood lead levels in children have declined by 75 percent.
Natural gas.
Higher trophic levels are animals that are higher up on the food chain. When animals lower on the food chain get effected by pollutants, it transfers to the animal that eats that one. And so on. So the animals on the higher trophic level eat the most animals(animals with the pollutants).
