What does a Narrow-Spectrum Pesticide target?

  1. The predators, parasites, and pathogens that attack and kill other organisms.

  2. The death of plant or animal tissues.

  3. A pest control product effective against only one species of pests.

  4. A pesticide used to control nematodes.

The correct answer is: A pest control product effective against only one species of pests.

A Narrow-Spectrum Pesticide targets a specific species of pests rather than a wide range of organisms. This specificity makes it effective against the particular pest species it is intended to control while minimizing harm to beneficial organisms in the environment. By focusing on only one species of pests, Narrow-Spectrum Pesticides are considered more environmentally friendly compared to broad-spectrum pesticides that can impact a broader range of organisms.
