Answer:

The correct options for this question are:

<span>A) Roaches ate about the same amount from the dish with no hydramethylnon as they did from the control dish.
B) Roaches ate about the same amount from the dish with no oleic acid as they did from the control dish.
F) Roaches are refusing corn syrup.</span>
