Answer 1

The weed clogs propellers that boats use for propulsion.

Answer 2

The correct answer is option B

The herbicide resistant hydrilla became a problem in the navigation of boats as this weed clogs the propellers that is used for propulsion or we can say for its movement.

The weed became resistant because of using the same kind of herbicide every time. This led to their growth in massive number. When the boat move in water these plants get stuck into the propellers and hinders the movement of boat which caused problem.
