The correct Answer is:
**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Understanding Pollution**: - Pollution refers to the introduction of harmful substances or pollutants into the environment, which can have detrimental effects on living organisms and ecosystems. 2. **Types of Pollution**: - There are various types of pollution including air, water, soil, and noise pollution. Each type affects the environment and living beings in different ways. 3. **Impact on Biotic Environment**: - Pollution significantly impacts the biotic environment, which includes all living organisms such as plants, animals, and humans. For example, air pollution can lead to respiratory diseases in humans and animals, while water pollution can harm aquatic life. 4. **Impact on Abiotic Environment**: - The abiotic environment includes non-living components like air, water, and soil. Pollution can alter these components, but the question specifically asks about changes in living organisms. 5. **Biogeochemical Cycling**: - Biogeochemical cycles (like the carbon cycle, nitrogen cycle, etc.) involve the movement of elements and compounds through living organisms and the environment. While pollution can affect these cycles, the question focuses on direct changes in living organisms. 6. **Conclusion**: - Based on the analysis, the most appropriate answer to the question "Pollution can bring about change in" is the **biotic environment**. Therefore, the correct option is **C. Biotic environment**. ---
