What is the primary function of an antidote in pesticide exposure cases?

Disinfect application equipment
Control pests' population growth
Provide breathable air
Counteract the effects of poisoning

The correct answer is: Counteract the effects of poisoning

An antidote is a substance that acts as a specific remedy for a poison or toxin. In pesticide exposure cases, the primary function of an antidote is to counteract the effects of the poison and neutralize its harmful effects on the body. Options A, B, and C are incorrect because they do not directly address the issue of pesticide exposure and its effects on the body. Disinfecting equipment, controlling pests' population growth, and providing breathable air may be important factors in preventing pesticide exposure, but they do not serve as a direct solution to counteract the poison's effects. Therefore, option D is the only correct answer.
