One variety of partially biodegradable plastic beverage container is manufactured from small bits of plastic bound together by a degradable bonding agent such as cornstarch. Since only the bonding agent degrades, leaving the small bits of plastic, no less plastic refuse per container is produced when such containers are discarded than when comparable nonbiodegradable containers are discarded. Which of the following, if true, most strengthens the argument above?

(A) Both partially biodegradable and nonbiodegradable plastic beverage containers can be crushed completely flat by refuse compactors.

(B) The partially biodegradable plastic beverage containers are made with more plastic than comparable nonbiodegradable ones in order to compensate for the weakening effect of the bonding agents.

(C) Many consumers are ecology-minded and prefer to buy a product sold in the partially biodegradable plastic beverage containers rather than in nonbiodegradable containers, even if the price is higher.

(D) The manufacturing process for the partially biodegradable plastic beverage containers results in less plastic waste than the manufacturing process for nonbiodegradable plastic beverage containers.

(E) Technological problems with recycling currently prevent the reuse as food or beverage containers of the plastic from either type of plastic beverage container.

(B) The partially biodegradable plastic beverage containers are made with more plastic than comparable nonbiodegradable ones in order to compensate for the weakening effect of the bonding agents

Explanation:

The whole sentence in the question is seeking for a point to strengthens the argument and point, that some sort of supposed  "biodegradable containers" are to most extent a pollutant as the non-biodegradable ones. Therefore, it proves to show that the partially biodegradable contains as much of plastic as to the non-biodegradable ones when it's discarded, a stand that clearly shows that no less plastic is been save when such container are discarded than when comparable to nonbiodegradable containers( generates same waste per container).

Option B is the only correct statement which conveys that partially biodegradable plastic containers contain more plastic than comparable nonbiodegradable ones. The other options are not relevant to the agurment stated in the question.

Option A argument is about plastic container crushing.

Option C argument is about consumer ecology mindset and their buying habits.

Option D argument is about manufacturing process  and waste management

Option E argument is about the technological problems.
