Question

1. a homeowner discovers unwanted insects and weeds damaging her garden and considers using a product from a local store to control them. she notices that some products target specific organisms, such as insects or fungi, while others are designed for a broader range. which of the following would work best for her needs?

o insecticide
o herbicide
o pesticide
o fungicide

Explanation:

A pesticide is a substance used to kill pests, which can include insects, fungi, and weeds. A fungicide is specifically for fungi, an insecticide for insects, and a herbicide for weeds. Since the homeowner has both insects and weeds (a broader range of pests), a pesticide (which can target multiple types of pests) would be the best choice.

Answer:

pesticide
