What is the main characteristic of Invert Emulsions in terms of pesticide carrier?

  1. Water soluble pesticide dispersed in oil carrier

  2. Active ingredients are insoluble

  3. Contain one or more active ingredients and a solvent

  4. Contain low active ingredient concentrations

The correct answer is: Water soluble pesticide dispersed in oil carrier

Invert emulsions are characterized by having a water soluble pesticide dispersed in an oil carrier. Therefore, options B, C, and D are incorrect as they do not describe the main characteristic. Option B states that the active ingredients are insoluble, which is not a defining feature of invert emulsions. Option C mentions a solvent, but this is not a defining characteristic of invert emulsions either. Option D states that invert emulsions contain low active ingredient concentrations, but this is not necessarily true as some formulations may have higher concentrations of active ingredients. Therefore, the main characteristic of invert emulsions is the use of a water soluble pesticide dispersed in an oil carrier.
