Question

Which amongst the following is not a source of Radioactive Pollution?

Options

• Nuclear weapons

• X-rays waste

• Pesticides

• Radioactive fallout from nuclear plants

Answer 1

Pesticides

Explanation:

• Nuclear weapons (a), X-rays waste (b), and radioactive fallout from nuclear plants (d) are all sources of radioactive pollution because they release radioactive materials into the environment.
• Pesticides (c), on the other hand, do not contain radioactive substances and are therefore not a source of radioactive pollution. They are chemicals that may cause environmental harm but do not release radiation.
