Question

an aspirin may help your plants to ______.
a. appear shiny to the eye
b. grow thicker leaves
c. prepare for a disease attack
d. all of the above

Explanation:

Aspirin (acetylsalicylic acid) can be used on plants. Salicylic acid is a signal molecule in plants that helps them activate their defense mechanisms against pathogens. So, using aspirin (which breaks down to salicylic acid) helps plants prepare for disease attacks. Option a (shiny appearance) and b (thicker leaves) are not primary effects of aspirin on plants; the main benefit is disease resistance preparation.

Answer:

c. prepare for a disease attack
