Answer:

The pesticides are worn off by the weather.

Explanation:

Becuase the chemicals can only work for a little in the pesticides so when bad weather comes around it finishes the rest of the chemicals in the pesticide.

Probably insects developed resistance to the pesticide.

Explanation:

The term resistance refers to an inheritable change in the population sensitivity,. In the exposed example, the first time that the farmer sprayed the pesticide, the insect population decrease sharply. This means that the chemical affected them severely. They probably passed this modification to the following generations, which expressed it, and developed resistance to the pesticide.

How does sleeping pills react or are bad to the body​
spayn [35]

Hi there.

Sleeping pills can be affective, one common side-affects are; "slower breathing" -- slower breathing is a common factor, as a side affect. Another would be "depressed breathing".

These happen for many reasons, forcing your body to sleep isn't on the "healthy" side of your body.

Sometimes, people do get addicted to sleeping pills; and take them every night and can lead to small or major health issues.

An unwanted pill that goes into your body every night will cause unwanted side affects. That can be very harmful!

This is because land could not be colonized by other organisms such as animals until land plants became established-there was nothing for animals to feed on.

So, plants were one of the earliest organisms to leave the water and colonize land.
