    There are four major components found in wood, and these are:

    cellulose

    lignin

    starch

    protein

    Among the four, I believe that cellulose and lignin are the most difficult to degrade because they contain large amount of cross-linked heavy hydrocarbons.

    Answer:

    cellulose

    lignin
