The correct answer is: Injury or damage to a sensitive plant caused by a chemical exposure

Phytotoxicity refers to the potential for a chemical, in this case pesticides, to cause harm or injury to plants. A) is the correct definition as it accurately describes the specific harm to plants caused by chemical exposure. B) is incorrect because it does not relate to the definition of phytotoxicity, but rather gives a directive on how to store pesticides. C) is incorrect as it refers to the time between pesticide application and reentering the treated area, and D) is incorrect as it describes the composition of pesticides, rather than the effects.
