Verified by Toppr

Plastics and metal cans do not get decomposed by microbial activity, making them the least biodegradable. The proteinaceous part of the bone is biodegradable, whereas the mineral-based part is non-biodegradable. The main components of paper are plant material cellulose, and most plant materials are biodegradable.
Thus, the correct answer is option C.
