Solution

The correct option is D Biodegradable pollution
Domestic waste generally is made up of kitchen waste like vegetable peels etc. That are left over from the restaurants and households. These are biodegradable in nature due to its organic nature. So, the decomposing bacteria can easily breakdown these compounds into inorganic constituents. This is the reason it is advised not to mix the kitchen waste with the non-biodegradable waste. Biodegradable pollution does not accumulate in nature and if properly managed, will not be anenvironmental issues. Hence, the correct answer is 'Biodegradable pollution'.
