                     This question was  attempted by many candidates and their performance was very good.  Candidates correctly stated sources of water  pollution, while a few candidates mentioned mining activities as sources of  water pollution. 
                    The expected  answers are as follows: 
                                SOURCES  OF WATER POLLUTION 
                    
                      - factory  waste / industrial sewage
 
                      - human  waste / domestic sewage
 
                      - agricultural  pollutants (nitrates, pesticides and chemicals)
 
                      - oil  spill
 
                      - mining  activities
 
                      - dumping  of refuse in water
