Aerosol decrease primary productivity by
- A. Decreasing \( O_{2} \) concentration
- B. Competing with \( C O_{2} \)
- C. Preventing \( N_{2} \) fixation
- D. Reducing photosynthesis
Step-by-step solution
Aerosols scatter and absorb sunlight, reducing the amount of photosynthetically active radiation reaching plants. This limits the rate of photosynthesis, thereby decreasing primary productivity. Other options are less directly or not significantly affected by aerosols.
