The two correct answers regarding how changes in the atmosphere from burning fossil fuels affect plant life are:

  1. Increased ozone levels slow plant growth.
  2. Acid rain removes nutrients from soil.

Increased ozone levels can be harmful to plants, reducing their growth and productivity. Additionally, acid rain, which can result from the emissions of nitrogen dioxide and sulfur dioxide from burning fossil fuels, can lead to nutrient depletion in the soil, negatively impacting plant health.
