What kind of pesticide is a stomach poison, requiring consumption by an animal to be effective?

  1. Insect Growth Regulators (IGRs)

  2. Lethal Dose

  3. Larvicide

  4. Stomach poison

The correct answer is: Stomach poison

Stomach poison is a type of pesticide that is specifically designed to be ingested by animals and kill them through its effects on the digestive system. Options A, B, and C are incorrect because they do not fall under the category of stomach poison. Insect Growth Regulators (IGRs) work by interfering with the normal growth and development of insects, rather than targeting their digestive systems. Lethal Dose refers to the amount of a substance needed to kill a specific organism, but it does not specify the method of ingestion. Larvicide is used to target and kill insect larvae, and does not necessarily work through consumption by the animal. Therefore, the correct answer is D.
