Which type of pollution originates from a spill site or mixing/cleaning area?

  1. Point of Runoff

  2. Poison Control Center

  3. Pheromone

  4. Point-Source Pollution

The correct answer is: Point-Source Pollution

Point-Source Pollution is pollution that comes from a single source, such as a spill site or mixing/cleaning area. This type of pollution is more localized and easier to trace to a specific origin, making it easier to clean up. Option A, Point of Runoff, is incorrect because it refers to the location where pollution enters a waterway rather than the source of the pollution itself. Option B, Poison Control Center, is incorrect because it is a facility that deals with managing cases of accidental poisonings, not pollution. Option C, Pheromone, is incorrect because it is a chemical substance used for communication between animals, and it is not directly related to pollution.
