correct
answers
What
ways
do
non-chemical
pest
control
methods
work
with
an
organism's
biology?
-
answer-Understanding
the
life-cycle
and
natural
habitat
or
predators
can
aid
in
non-chemical
pest
control
by
mimicking
natural
events
or
minimizing
populations
by
avoiding
creating
the
perfect
timing
or
environment
for
pest
populations
How
does
planting
transgenic
crops
affect
a
pest
management
plan
targeting
insects
or
mites?
-
answer-You
may
need
to
apply
fewer
pesticides;
greater
number
of
nontarget
organisms
remaining;
secondary
pests
may
emerge
when
primary
pest
populations
have
been
reduced;
you
cannot
rely
solely
on
the
transgenic
crop
How
does
host
plant
resistance
relate
to
disease
management?
-
answer-must
have
conventional
plants
within
crop
to
avoid
pest
developing
resistance
or
circumventing
around
the
gene
in
the
plant;
"cross
protection"
similar
to
vaccinations
How
does
planting
transgenic
crops
affect
a
weed
management
plan?
-
answer-herbicide
resistance
in
crop
to
be
able
to
spray
for
weeds
throughout
crop's
life
cycle;
ability
to
switch
to
conservation
tillage;
can
increase
pesticide
use
and
reliance
on
single
herbicides
How
do
pest-related
transgenic
crops
fit
into
an
IPM
program?
-
answer-transgenic
crop
targets
specific
pests;
ability
to
decrease
chemical
control
methods;
scout
for
secondary
pest
pressure;
diversifies
IPM
program What
are
the
relationships
among
the
components
of
an
effective
IPM
program?
-
answer-they
all
work
together;
cannot
be
reliant
on
solely
one
component
What
are
non-chemical
pest
management
practices?
-
answer-biological,
mechanical/physical;
cultural
-
augmentation,
tillage,
crop
rotation
Why
is
it
important
to
know
how
living
organisms
are
classified
and
named?
What
two
components
make
up
an
organism's
scientific
name?
-
answer-For
proper
identification
and
management;
confusion
across
regional
boundaries
with
differing
common
names;
generic
name
and
specific
name
Why
is
understanding
life
history
and
identification
of
life
stages
of
both
pests
and
crops
is
critical?
-
answer-for
successful
control
dependent
upon
pinpointing
most
vulnerable
life
stage
of
pest
and
crop;
timing
What
ways
do
pesticides
work
with
an
organism's
biology
and
what
biological
factors
may
alter
a
pesticide's
effectiveness?
-
answer-some
pesticides
take
advantage
of
various
characteristics
(grooming,
metabolism,
reproduction,
etc.);
factors
to
consider
-
life
stage,
physical
strengths
and
weaknesses,
environmental
conditions
needed
for
reproduction,
sources
of
food
and
shelter
What
is
the
anatomical
difference
between
insects
and
mites?
-
answer-

are
the
life
stages/life
cycle
of
insects
with
complete
metamorphosis?
-
answer-egg,
larva,
pupae,
adult What
are
the
life
stages/life
cycle

-
answer-egg,
nymph,
adult
What
are
the
life
stages/life
cycle
of
mites?
-
answer-egg,
larva,
nymph,
adult
What
are
the
life
stages/life
cycle
of
annual,
biennial,
and
perennial
weeds?
-
answer-
What
are
the
life
stages/life
cycle
of
nematodes?
-
answer-egg,
larva,
adult
What
are
the
life
stages/life
cycle
of
vertebrate
pests?
-
answer-egg,
juvenile,
adult
What
are
the
life
stages/life
cycle
of
pathogens?
-
answer-
What
are
common
sources
of
insects
and
mites?
-
answer-
What
are
common
sources
of
inoculum?
