Answer 1

Only 3.

Explanation:

Acid rain has a negative influence on the ecosystem because it lowers the pH of water bodies, killing fish and other aquatic life, and leaches important nutrients from the soil, degrading trees. It also reacts chemically with architectural materials such as limestone and marble, resulting in rapid weathering and structural damage to historical monuments and modern infrastructure.
