Biodegradability refers to an object's susceptibility to being broken down and recycled by living organisms, mostly microorganisms. Fruit, because of its high nutrient content and its sometimes express purpose to be eaten by other organisms, makes it prime targets for consumption and digestion by other organisms. Most organisms also have the necessary enzymes to metabolism the relatively simple nutrients in fruit. In comparison, plastic is not nutritious to most organisms, it is normally not an intended target for ingestion, and for those unfortunate enough to ingest it, the necessary enzymes are not present in nature to break it down.

Bamboo typically takes 1-2 years to biodegrade in the soil, depending on environmental conditions such as temperature, moisture, and microbial activity. It is a natural material that decomposes relatively quickly compared to other materials like plastics.
Plastics, especially those made from polyethylene and polystyrene, can take hundreds to thousands of years to biodegrade in the environment. Other items like glass and aluminum can also take a long time to break down under natural conditions.
It can take anywhere from a few months to several years for a pencil to biodegrade, depending on the materials used and the environmental conditions. Pencils made from natural wood or biodegradable materials will break down faster compared to those made from synthetic materials.
It can take anywhere from 2 weeks to 50 years for certain items in a landfill to biodegrade. Organic materials like food waste and paper break down much faster, while plastics and metals can take hundreds to thousands of years to degrade.
about a week
Yes, latex does biodegrade naturally over time.
It takes 1000 years for it too biodegrade and that is if it is buried. :)
No, nylon does not biodegrade easily because it is a synthetic material made from petroleum-based chemicals.
How long it takes for an aluminum can to biodegrade
2years
Aluminium... No. Tin... Yes.
100 millennium
Eraser is made out of rubber. If exposed under the sun, an eraser will take between 50 to 80 years to biodegrade.
Foam? Like old coffee cups and such? They never biodegrade. Unlike plastic that will take a thousand years foam will never biodegrade. In ten millions years of something is digging in the ground, it could find your cup that you left behind.
A banana peel typically takes about 2-5 weeks to biodegrade, depending on environmental conditions such as temperature and moisture.
Biodegrade is another word for decompose.
