Question: Compare non point source pollution to point source pollution.

Point sources come from discrete pipes flowing into a river for example Non point are more diffuse sources that don't come from one single pipe or outlet

Explanation: Point sources are for example, water discharging from an industrial plant of some kind or a waste water treatment plant

Non-point sources include run-off from agricultural lands that may wash fertilizer or other chemicals into lakes or rivers

Explanation:

In a point source pollution is caused by the pollutants which originate from single source, but in a non-point source pollution, the pollutants emerge from multiple sources.

In a point source pollution the source of origin of pollutant can be tracked back, but in a non-point source pollution the source of origin of pollutant cannot be tracked back.

A point source pollutant can be prevented as the source of origin of pollutant can be tracked back and hence the emergence of pollutants can be restricted. But a non-point source pollution cannot be prevented as the source of origin of pollutants remains unknown.

Example of point source pollution is the discharge of sewage or industrial waste in the water body. The example of non-point source pollution includes the runoff caused by the rainwater. It may take away substances present on the surface of the soil such as chemical fertilizers, sediments, biological matter like plant and animal litter and deposit them to the nearby water body.
