What does an Insecticide target?

Backbone animals
Plants
Fungi
Insects and related arthropods

The correct answer is: Insects and related arthropods

An insecticide is a type of pesticide specifically designed to target and control insects and related arthropods. These chemicals are formulated to kill or repel insects that may be damaging crops, spreading diseases, or causing other issues. Therefore, the correct answer is D. The other options are not correct because: A. Backbone animals are vertebrates but are not the target of insecticides. B. Plants are not the target of insecticides, as insecticides are intended to control insects that may be damaging plants. C. Fungi are a separate category of organisms that may be targeted by fungicides, not insecticides.
