Solution

Option (b) is the correct answer.

Waste collected in polythene bags for disposal does not reflect responsible behaviour. This is because polythene bags are non-biodegradable. They do not decompose in nature on their own. Also, they are eaten up along with garbage by cattle, thus causing harm to them.
