    Options:

    1, 2
    1, 2, 3
    2, 3
    All

    ✅Explanation:
    -Cellulomonas: These bacteria are well-known for their ability to degrade cellulose, a major component of plant matter, which is abundant in compost.
    -Myxococcus: These bacteria are predators of other bacteria and contribute to the composting process by helping to control microbial populations and release nutrients from dead cells.

    🔑Key Points:
    -Composting will help you to reduce waste products, is the correct sentence.
    -Composting is defined as the aerobic method of decomposing organic solid wastes.
    -In this process, a humus-like material, known as compost, which is a good fertilizer for plants, is produced by the decomposition of organic material.
    -Three things are required for the purpose of composting, which are –
    -Human Management
    -Aerobic Conditions
    -Development of internal biological heat
    -Ingredients required for composting organisms to work effectively-
    -Carbon – To maintain the energy and heat during the process
    -Nitrogen – To maintain the process of growing and reproduction of microorganisms.
    -Oxygen – To oxidise the carbon for the process of decomposition
    -Water – To maintain Aerobic Condition
    -The common microorganisms to breakdown organic matter into compost are Bacteria, Actinobacteria, Fungi, Protozoa and Rotifers as well as earthworms are also used to continually re-create aeration and drainage tunnels in the compost.
