उत्तर
This statement is false.
Explanation:
DDT is a non-biodegradable pollutant that does not break down easily in the environment. It persists for many years and accumulates through the food chain via biomagnification, leading to harmful effects such as thinning of eggshells in birds and various health issues in humans and wildlife. Thus, DDT is considered a persistent organic pollutant (POP) rather than biodegradable.
