Choose the correct option for the following statements.
A. Plastics can be decomposed easily, hence are eco-friendly.
B. Burning of plastics releases toxic gases.
C. Accumulation of plastics in water and soil reduces pollution.

• A. A-False, B-True, C-False
• B. A-False, B-True, C-True
• C. A-True, B-False, C-True
• D. A-True, B-True, C-True

Answer 1

The correct option is A A-False, B-True, C-False

Plastics are non-biodegradable in nature and can not be decomposed easily. They are non environment friendly. When plastic bags are burned, harmful gases are released, which may cause respiratory problems. Once they are released into water and soil, they pollute the environment.
So, the statement B is true but statements A and C are false.
