Environmentalists are hoping to protect
endangered organisms by calling for a reduction
in the use of pesticides, because loss of these
organisms would
(1) increase the mutation rate in plants
(2) cause pesticides to become more toxic to
insects
(3) reduce biodiversity in various ecosystems
(4) decrease the space and resources available to
other organisms
