Answer:

Fertilizers are chemicals that kill plants.

Explanation:

Fertilizers are not pesticides. Fertilizers helps to improve plant yield by supplying nutrients needed for plant growth and food formation. When fertilizers are applied to plants, the nutrient pool increases and plants can readily grow without any deficiency resulting from lack of one mineral or the other.

Herbicides are used to kill plants.
