Abstract
Moss Physcomitriumpyriforme and Octoblepharumalbidum samples were collected from some gardens and Monument areas and some Heavy Traffic areas. Samples were collected from soils and moist brick walls and analysed for determination of elements Zn, Mn and Fe. Samples collected from Garden and Monument areas treated as Control. Samples collected from Heavy Traffic areas showed higher level of elements in comparison to the samples collected from Garden and Monument sites. Higher content of Zinc, Manganese and Iron was found in the Heavy Traffic areas as compared to the Garden and monument areas. A parameter, catalase Activity has also been studied by using particular method to determine the effect of pollution on the metabolism of species.
