I think the appropriate answer for the above question is the Organochlorine insecticides which is a chemical pesticide. Their mode of action varies but mostly affects the nervous system, they are highly persistent, their sensitivity to insects is least specific ( broad spectrum). Their long environmental persistence, results in fish, bird, and terrestrial animal death. The chemical groups of pesticides include the organophosphates and carbamates, organnochlorine, botanicals, synthetic pyrethroids, insect growth regulators and the microbials.

Why are groups of small cells better than one large cell at moving material in
kirill [66]

The groups of small cells better than one large cell at moving material in  and out because they have a greater surface-to-volume ratio.

<u>Option: A</u>

<u>Explanation:</u>

This happened so as these smaller cells, unlike bigger cells, can quickly and willingly enter and move through the membranes of other cell membranes and permeable coverings. For these smaller and mini cells, it is also important to penetrate and move effectively, distribute and transport products and materials such as nutrients, oxygen and waste across the body without requiring enough energy and saving less space. They are cheaper, more effective and use less room for simple reasons, and most notably deplete less resources.
