What is the function of nozzles in pesticide application?

  1. Eliminate all pests in the environment.

  2. Produce dust for organic control.

  3. Produce droplets forming the spray pattern.

  4. Filter out harmful substances from sprays.

The correct answer is: Produce droplets forming the spray pattern.

Nozzles in pesticide application serve the function of producing droplets that form the spray pattern. This allows for more precise and targeted application of the pesticide, reducing the risk of over-application and potential harm to non-target organisms. Option A is incorrect because it is not feasible for nozzles to eliminate all pests in the environment. Option B is incorrect because nozzles do not produce dust for organic control; they produce droplets. Option D is incorrect because while some nozzles may have a filtering component, their main function is to produce the spray pattern.
