Best Answer

Something that is disposable means that it is used once and thrown away. These products are often made from materials that do not decompose, such as plastic. On the other hand, something that is biodegradable is something that can be broken down by bacteria, such as wood. And the paper towels are made from wood. So yes, paper towels are biodegradable.
