B. Eutrophication of freshwater bodies.
C. Burning of fossil fuels releases gases that can cause acid rain.

参考答案: D
本题详细解析:
In the nitrogen cycle, soil bacteria convert ammonia to nitrates which can thenzs v4q*c,y.v2/jl a a969k cwx cf8doj be taken up by plants. This is vj/*8yk.fd xoc,jvz c2swlc q499 a6a part of the natural cycle of nitrogen and not a human-induced effect on the nitrogen cycle.
Industrial production and use of fertilizers increase the amount of nitrogen in the soil and water bodies of agricultural regions (Option A).
The use of fertilizers can lead to runoff of water containing nitrogen into neighboring water bodies, leading to eutrophication (Option B).
Burning of fossil fuels releases not only carbon but also nitrogen as nitrogen oxides, which can react with water to form nitric acid, decreasing the pH of streams and rivers (Option C).
