What term describes a pesticide used to kill or inhibit algae?

Antibiotic
Algaecide (Algicide)
Agitation System
Algae

The correct answer is: Algaecide (Algicide)

An algaecide, also known as algicide, is a pesticide specifically designed to target and eliminate algae, which are small aquatic plants. Antibiotics, on the other hand, are medicines used to treat bacterial infections and do not have any effect on algae. Agitation systems are used to mix substances together and have no impact on algae. While algae itself is mentioned in the question, it is not a pesticide and should be ruled out as a possible answer.
