The basis for classifying substances as biodegradable and non-biodegradable is through the action of decomposers on them.
Biodegradable items are substances that can be broken down into simpler forms by decomposers such as bacteria and fungi. Their examples include; dead animals, animal waste, wood and pant waste.

Non biodegradable items are those that cannot be broken down by decomposers. Their examples include; plastics, glass and metals.
