The correct answer is D) Smog.

To arrive at the answer, first, let's understand the options provided:

A) Air Pollution: This refers to the contamination of the air by harmful substances such as gases, particulate matter, and chemicals. While air pollution can contribute to reduced visibility, it doesn't specifically refer to the situation described in the question.

B) Light Pollution: This refers to the excessive or misdirected artificial light that can interfere with the natural darkness of the night sky. Light pollution does not directly cause reduced visibility in the daytime, so it is not the correct answer.

C) Temperature Inversion: This is a weather condition that occurs when a layer of warm air is trapped above a layer of cooler air, causing a reversal in the normal temperature pattern. While temperature inversion can contribute to air pollution and reduced visibility, it is not the specific term for the situation described.

D) Smog: This is a combination of smoke and fog, typically resulting from pollutants released into the atmosphere by industrial and urban areas. Smog often appears as a haze or fog that hangs over urban areas, leading to reduced visibility. Therefore, smog is the correct answer to the question.

In summary, the correct answer is D) Smog.
