Question at position 17 asks about the potential risk of systemic pesticide exposure to pollinators.
Option 1: 'No: systemic pesticides are neutralized in the soil therefore those pesticides are safe for non-target species' This is inaccurate because systemic pesticides are taken up by plant tissues and can accumulate in pollen and nectar, meaning pollinators can be exposed even if the soil contains the chemical.
Option 2: 'Yes: systemic pesticides stay in pollen and nectar for long durations' This accurately reflects a key concern: systemic pesticides are distributed throughout the plant, including pollen and nectar, and can persist for extended periods, increasing exposure risk for pollinators such as bees when they collect these resources.
Option 3: 'No: systemic pesticides actually only affect fungi and bacterial pathogens' This is incorrect; while some products target fungi or bacteria, systemic pesticides commonly refer to insecticides or herbicides that move within plant tissues, and many have direct unintended effects on non-target species like pollinators when they are present in nectar or pollen.
Overall, the second option correctly identifies the core issue: systemic pesticides can linger in pollen and nectar, creating exposure pathways for pollinators that forage on treated plants.
