What is microbial degradation?

Chemical breakdown of pesticides
Physical breakdown of pesticide containers
Breakdown of a chemical by microorganisms
Biological growth of microbes on crops

The correct answer is: Breakdown of a chemical by microorganisms

Microbial degradation is the process by which microorganisms, such as bacteria or fungi, break down complex chemicals into simpler forms that can be absorbed by plants or other organisms. This process is specific to the breakdown of chemicals and is not related to physical breakdown of containers or biological growth on crops. Therefore, options A, B, and D are incorrect.
