Answer:

a) pollution

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiple environmental stressors, such as agricultural runoff, pollution and invasive species, threaten rivers that serve 80 percent of the world's population. These same stressors endanger the biodiversity of 65 percent of the world's river habitats putting thousands of aquatic wildlife species at risk.
