What is a mixture made by suspending droplets of one liquid in another, with an active ingredient dissolved in an oil-based solvent and then diluted with water?

A) Liquid Baits
B) Dry Pesticide Products
C) Suspensions
D) Emulsion

The correct answer is: D) Emulsion

An emulsion is a type of mixture that involves suspending tiny droplets of one liquid into another liquid. In this case, the active ingredient is dissolved in an oil-based solvent which is then mixed with water. This helps to evenly distribute the active ingredient and make it easier to apply. The other options are not correct because they do not match the definition of an emulsion. Liquid baits are usually a mixture of food attractants and pesticide, while dry pesticide products do not involve suspending droplets in liquid. Suspensions are also incorrect as they typically involve solid particles suspended in liquid, not droplets of one liquid in another.
