Cause of Pollution in water and its danger

1. Plastic Pollution

2. 20 Sea Animals Affected by Plastic Pollution Sea Turtle Dolphin Sea horse Sperm Whales Squid Octopuses Sea Lions Seals Clown fish Walrus Starfish Lobster Hammerhead Tiger shark Sword fish Jellyfish Crab Humpback Whale Eel Catfish

3. Zones in which the Sea Creatures live Different plastic is found in different zones as some float while some sink

5. Plastic At Different Levels

6. Turtles - Turtles are also known to become entangled in a variety of other items, including plastic twine, six-pack rings, plastic packaging, plastic chairs, balloons and their string, sheet plastic, and boat mooring line Dolphin - PCBs (polychlorinated biphenyls), DDTs (trichloroethane), and dioxins are some of the most common. Crab -A University of Hull study of crabs off the Yorkshire coast revealed that a plastic additive called oleamide causes hyperactivity in the creatures. Whale - A recent study of marine life found that flexible plastic like plastic bags and packaging is responsible for the largest proportion of deaths from debris, primarily due to gastric obstructions Lobster - Microplastic fiber pollution in the ocean affects larval lobsters at each stage of their development, according to new research. Type of Plastic Affecting Marine Animals Seals - Microplastic as it is very small are eaten by seals and choke them which can cause death. Octopuses - Plastic like glass bottles, cans and caps  affect the octopuses. Hammer head sharks and sword fish are affected by plastic as it damages their stomach
