Question

Non Biodegradable materials do not break down by the action of microorganisms.Will there be any effect of heat and pressure if they remain buried under the land for a long time

Answer 1

I think answer is no.

Answer 2

Answer:

Non-biodegradable materials( for example- plastics) cannot be broken down by microorganisms, however, they are acted upon by external factors such as heat and pressure.

The impact is slow as these are mainly inert and take millions of years to decompose as they are difficult to decompose and thereby harms the environment and other living beings.
