Corn earworm is a caterpillar-like worm that can destroy corn crops if it's population is not controlled.Suppose a population of corn earworms is sprayed with pesticide for the first time. The population includes organisms that vary in their susceptibility to the pesticide.How natural selection most likely alter the earworm population over time

Question

-over each subsequent generation a greater percentage of the earworm population will be resistant to the pesticide,until the pesticide is ineffective.

-the initial spraying will destroy the earworm population,but the earworms will return each growing season unless the pesticide is used every year.

-the pesticide will alter the DNA of the earworms, making all members of the population resistant to the pesticide within one generation.

-the pesticide will have to be sprayed in larger quantities every year to destroy the same number of earworms.

PLSS HELP!!

Answer 1

Where is the question???

Answer 2

The first paragraph

Answer 3

Pls someone answer

Answer 4

Corn earworm has become resistant to many insecticides, meaning that no matter how much you add each year, it will not be able to tolerate the pesticide. Additionally, the best way to stop earworms is to dab a bit of vegetable oil on the silks of each corn ear to discourage corn earworms from crawling inside. Cut and destroy all corn stalks in the fall to prevent the insects from overwintering in them.

Regardless, this is the answer to your question:
over each subsequent generation a greater percentage of the earworm population will be resistant to the pesticide, until the pesticide is ineffective.

As stated above, the earworms will become resistant and the pesticide will be useless/ineffective.
