Water pollution is chemicals or resources that are harmful to humans, animals and plants and resources that don’t belong in the water. Water pollution mostly depends on quantity, because if you were to spill a cup of oil in the water it would spread because it is such a small amount, it wouldn’t do any harm. But if you were to have an oil spill from a ship it may cause some damages and be more visible because it is a greater quantity.
