Which atmospheric component is related to visibility and haze?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Dust and smoke
Visibility and haze are strongly affected by suspended aerosols. Fine dust and smoke particles scatter and absorb light, so less light travels directly from objects to the observer; the air consequently looks hazy and visibility falls. Option C is therefore the best answer. Water vapour can reduce visibility in fog, but oxygen and argon are clear gases, and the question asks for the principal particle components associated with general haze.
