particulate matter.
Explanation:
Pollution can be defined as the physical degradation or contamination of the environment through an emission of harmful, poisonous and toxic chemical substances. Particulate population is a form of pollution that is responsible for the degradation of the environment.
Particulate matter is also referred to as particle pollution or atmospheric aerosol particles and it can be defined as a complex microscopic mixture of liquid droplets and solid particles that are suspended in air. Other forms of particle pollution includes space debris and marine debris.
Some examples of particulate pollution are dusts, soot, dirt, smoke, etc.
Basically, various anthropogenic activities such as construction and agriculture are primary sources of particulate matter because they're capable of causing particle pollution on their own. The other sources of particle pollution is the secondary source which includes factories, cars, trucks, etc.
