Answer:
The churning motion of the ocean, temperature fluctuations, and the high-energy components of sunlight all tend to steadily break down non-biodegradable trash into small bits. These bits typically range in size from microscopic specks to marbles.

Explanation:
Trash Travels estimates that plastic bags can take 20 years to decompose, plastic bottles up to450 years, and fishing line, 600 years; but in fact, no one really knows how long plastics will remain in the ocean. With exposure to UV rays and the ocean environment, plastic breaks down into smaller and smaller fragments.
