Which is an example of non-biodegradable waste?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Plastic bag

The governing concept is the ability of microorganisms to decompose a material naturally. A plastic bag is non-biodegradable because ordinary bacteria and fungi do not break it down quickly into harmless natural substances; it can persist in the environment and contribute to litter and pollution. Therefore, option D is correct. Banana peels, dry leaves, and vegetable peels are organic materials that can be decomposed by microorganisms and may be converted into compost under suitable conditions. This distinction supports waste segregation: organic waste should be composted, while plastic should be reduced, reused, collected, and sent for appropriate recycling or disposal.
