The correct option is C


A forest fire is the fire that spreads uncontrollably in forest or wild land, affecting vegetal fuels, flora and fauna. The beginning of the fire can be produced by natural causes or mainly by human action.

Natural forest fires have always been a normal element in the functioning of ecosystems. Fire has allowed the regeneration of diverse ecosystems and the production of a series of habitats in which different organisms can thrive.

The forest fires cause a great contamination in the air as well as Pollution of rivers that receive the rain waters that cross the burned zone dragging particles and ashes in suspension.
