Solution

The correct option is B Plastic
Biodegradation is the disintegration of materials by bacterial, fungi, or other biological means.
Most plastics are derived from propylene, a simple chemical component of petroleum.
While cotton, paper, and leftover foodstuff are decomposable by bacterial action.
So, option A is correct.
