Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

Concept:
Organic waste can be converted into nutrient-rich compost through biological decomposition methods.

Step 1:
Composting is the process of converting biodegradable waste into useful manure.

Step 2:
Vermicomposting uses earthworms to decompose kitchen waste and organic matter into compost.

Step 3:

• Wormicombustion is not a scientific waste management term.
• Garb-condensation is incorrect terminology.
• Kitchen-garden recycling is a general phrase, not the correct process name.

Step 4:
Therefore, compost preparation using earthworms is called Vermicomposting. \[ \boxed{\text{(3) Vermicomposting}} \]
