The right answer is D.

The effectiveness of BT-Corn compared to conventional insecticide treatment  is very much higher:

* The plant itself produces the toxin that blocks the digestion of or target insects: the entire plant is protected where a treatment (out of neonicotinoids, very expensive and reserved to the seed treatment) allows only a protection of surface and must be renewed several times.

* The selectivity of the treatment is very superior: each variant of the BT molecule targets only a family of insects but we do not know the impact of their cumulative effects in the environment.

Sonja [21]

Answer:

This question is incomplete

Explanation:

This question is incomplete. However, let's understand some terms

Activation energy is the minimum amount of energy required for a reaction to proceed. Under normal condition, when the activation energy is high, it takes longer for the reaction to proceed than when it is low.

The burning of marshmallow is an exothermic reaction as it involves the transfer of heat energy into the environment.
