Solution

The correct option is C
Human waste

Biofuel can be produced from raw materials such as agricultural waste, manure, animal waste, human waste, plant material, sewage, green waste or food waste. The anaerobic microorganisms in the soil act upon these wastes and convert it to biogas/biofuel. Electronic waste or e-waste describes discarded electrical or electronic devices. E-waste is non-biodegaradable and hence, cannot be degraded biologically by microbes.
