The act of crop dusting itself has not led to pesticide resistance. Mismanagement of pesticide application is the root cause of pesticide resistance.
What is Population Resistance?
Population resistance is also known as pesticide resistance. Pesticide resistance describes a pest population's increasing resistance to a pesticide that use to be effective in terminating said pests.
What is pesticide resistance.?
Pesticide resistance describes the decreased susceptibility of a pest population to a pesticide that was previously effective at controlling the pest.
How does pesticide resistance develop over time?
The pesticide resistance develops over time due to the natural selection.
What is an example of direct evidence for evolution is... genetic changes in plants antibiotic resistance in bacteria pesticide resistance in insects or all of the above?
genetic changes in plants, antibiotic resistance in bacteria, and pesticide resistance in insects.
How are humans contributing to anibiotic and pesticide resistance?
misuse and overuse.
How a pesticide can bioamplify and damage entire ecosystem?
The pesticide can bio-amplify and damage the entire ecosystem through the pesticide resistance and cause injury to the non-target animals and plants.
How pesticides resistance evolve?
Pesticide resistance evolves through natural selection. When a pesticide is applied, some individuals within the target pest population may have genetic variations that make them less susceptible to the pesticide's effects. These individuals survive, reproduce, and pass on their resistant traits to their offspring, leading to an increase in resistance over time. Continuous use of the same pesticide can further select for resistance, making it more difficult to control the pest population.
What are the positives of genetically modified food?
-more food production - better nutrition - pesticide resistance
