Best answer
Right choice is (d) Discharge from food processing factories

To explain: Organic wastes, also known as biodegradable wastes, are natural wastes of plants and animals. The source of organic wastes include domestic sewage, animal excreta and waste, decaying animals and plants, as well as discharge from food processing factories. They can ultimately lead to harm when they use up the oxygen in the water body that they are dumped into.
