What is the term used for the wider effects of a chemical that is absorbed and translocated within a plant or animal?

  1. The plants, animals, structures, areas, or pests to which the control method is directed

  2. Any detectable change in an organism resulting from activities of a pathogen or other pest

  3. A part of a sprayer that holds the finished spray mix

  4. Poisoning effects that occur at sites other than the entry point into the body

The correct answer is: Poisoning effects that occur at sites other than the entry point into the body

The term used for the wider effects of a chemical that is absorbed and translocated within a plant or animal is referred to as "poisoning effects that occur at sites other than the entry point into the body." This concept is known as systemic toxicity, where the absorbed chemical can circulate and affect different parts of the organism, causing harm at sites away from where the chemical initially entered. Options A, B, and C do not specifically address the broader effects of a absorbed and translocated chemical within a plant or animal. Option A talks about the targets of the control method, Option B refers to detectable changes from a pathogen or pest activity, and Option C describes a part of a sprayer that holds the finished spray mix, none of which directly relate to the systemic effects of a chemical within an organism.
