Plastic is a non - biodegradable waste.

Some other knowledge

Non biodegradable waste

The term non-biodegradable describes polymers that do not break down to a natural, environmentally safe condition over time by biological processes. Most plastics are non-biodegradable mainly because plastic is widely used because of its low cost, versatility and durability.

Biodegradable waste

Biodegradable waste includes any organic matter in waste which can be broken down into carbon dioxide, water, methane or simple organic molecules by micro-organisms and other living things by composting, aerobic digestion, anaerobic digestion or similar processes

Answer:

 {\huge{\sf{\green{\underline {\underline {Answer }}}}}}

The plastics are the non-biodegradable wastes because they are synthetic polymers which cannot be acted upon by the microbes. They cannot be degraded by the decomposition activity of the bacteria and fungi. The cotton, paper and leftover food are degradable.

Thus, the correct answer is option A......
