Polluted air contains fine particles created by cars,factories and natural dust.Fine particles of this kind are tiny,about 2.5 micrometers in diameter,or about one-thirtieth the width of a human hair.These particles can go deep into lungs and other organs.
The concentration of this particulate material to which they exposed mice is equal to the concentration at which people can be exposed in some polluted urban areas.
After a period of 10 months,the researchers got the animals to have a series of behavioral tests.Both the behavior of mice and the results of neurological(神经的) tests done to them show that those within the polluted air had more problems in learning and memory,and higher levels of anxiety.
The results suggest that long-time exposure to polluted air can have measurable negative effects on the human brain and can cause a variety of mental health problems.This could have important consequences for those living and working in polluted urban areas.

A.normal organs B.lungs and heart
