What defines a microencapsulated pesticide?

  1. Pesticide that comes in aerosol form

  2. Pesticide that is odorless

  3. Plastic capsules encasing the active ingredient

  4. Pesticide found in granular form

The correct answer is: Plastic capsules encasing the active ingredient

A microencapsulated pesticide is defined by plastic capsules enclosing the active ingredient. This encapsulation helps in controlling the release of the pesticide, providing a more sustained effect compared to other forms of pesticides. Option A is incorrect because aerosol form refers to a different type of pesticide application method. Option B is incorrect as the odor of a pesticide does not determine whether it is microencapsulated or not. Option D is incorrect as a pesticide being in granular form does not necessarily mean it is microencapsulated.
