Practice AP Environmental Science questions on air pollutants, fossil-fuel emissions, nitrogen oxides, sulfur dioxide, ozone, and particulates.
Respond to parts A, B, C, D, E, F, and G.
One major environmental problem is air pollution. Air pollution can come from natural or anthropogenic sources. Motor vehicles can be a source of particulate matter (PM) and other pollutants.
Identify an anthropogenic source of particulate matter, other than from motor vehicles.
Examples of acceptable responses may include the following:
- Coal/fossil fuel combustion
- Industrial exhaust
- Construction/demolition
- Waste incineration
- Mining
- Burning of biomass
- Anthropogenically caused wildfires
- Unpaved roads
- Agricultural fields
