Which of the following best explains how chlorinated hydrocarbons have a negative impact on plants? They bond and accumulate on the plant. They kill off insects that try to eat the plants. They are not effective in bonding to the plant. They eventually kill the plants as well as insects.

OpenStudy (james1107):

thats alot of words

ILovePuppiesLol (ilovepuppieslol):

chlorinated hydrocarbons are basically insecticides, they may kill the plants but they harm the plants as well right

ILovePuppiesLol (ilovepuppieslol):

i mean insects*

ILovePuppiesLol (ilovepuppieslol):

they may kill the insect

OpenStudy (james1107):

soooooooo the last one

ILovePuppiesLol (ilovepuppieslol):

yes let me explain why the other ones don't work

ILovePuppiesLol (ilovepuppieslol):

B says it kills the insects, that is a positive effect not a negative effect on the plants

ILovePuppiesLol (ilovepuppieslol):

A is not a negative effect either

ILovePuppiesLol (ilovepuppieslol):

leaving us with C and D, C has nothing to do with what chlorinated hydrocarbons do
