Solution

The correct option is B Moisture
Worm composting is using worms to convert food wastes and other organic materials into a valuable soil called vermicompost. Worms eat food wastes, which become compost as they pass through the worm's body.
They need moisture, air, food, darkness, and warm (but not hot) temperatures to turn nutrient-rich fruit and vegetable scraps into nutrient-rich compost.
So, the correct option is B.
