The map shows the main streams and the rivers near City A and City B, as well as the nearby factories and farmland. The arrows in the diagram show the direction of the water flow. City A gets its water from the sunset River and City B gets its water from the Moth Lake. A liquid herbicide was applied to a farmland. Based on the information in the map shown, which city would most likely have the best water quality and why? Choose the best answer.
Select one:

City A because there are no pollution sources upstream.

City B because it is fed by two rivers instead of just one.

City B because it is next to a lake which would have more clean water available.

City A because it is farther North which means it is colder so the water is cleaner.

A. City A because there are no pollution sources upstream.

Explanation:

Water pollution is th contamination of water. There are many means through which water is contaminated such as industrial waste, agricultural waste and domestic waste et-cetra.

City A and City B get water from sunset lake and moth lake which have factories (industrial waste) and farmland (agricultural waste) nearby them, which are responsible for the contamination of river water. due to this cities can recieve contaminated water which can affect their health.

But the quality of water in City A will be best than that of City B because according to the image, City A do not have nay upstream surce of pollution, as factories and farmland are located at downstream.

Hence, the correct option is A.
