Nonpoint source pollution is pollution that affects bodies of water, so remembering this can help in the future with this type of question. Some examples of nonpoint source pollution are; Excess fertilizers and herbicides, oil and toxic chemical runoff, as well as sediment from eroding stream banks. I hope this helps :)
