Answer:

Pollution may act as a selective pressure for speciation

Step-by-step explanation:

It can cause genetic drift of alleles by killing a large number of individual in a population.In microbes remember Ame's test where pollution [ carcinogens ] can increase mutation rate many fold. All these are process of evolution.
