Fertilizers and pesticides applied to farm fields in Pennsylvania have made their way to Chesapeake Bay Maryland, this is an example of _____________ pollution.

To determine the type of pollution in the given scenario, we can break down the information and analyze it step by step.

First, we know that fertilizers and pesticides applied in farm fields in Pennsylvania are somehow affecting Chesapeake Bay in Maryland. This suggests that these substances are entering the bay through some form of transport.

To identify the type of pollution involved, we need to consider the movement of these substances. The most likely method of transport is water runoff, as excess fertilizer and pesticide can be carried away by rainwater or irrigation runoff, eventually reaching rivers or streams that flow into the Chesapeake Bay.

Based on this information, the type of pollution we can identify is 'water pollution.' Specifically, it is non-point source water pollution because the pollution is not directly discharged from a single, identifiable source like a pipe or industrial facility. Instead, it originates from multiple locations, such as farmland across Pennsylvania, and is carried by runoff into the bay.

Since this is not my area of expertise, I searched Google under the key words "types of pollution in water" to get these possible sources:
