MCQ - 232-8184

Question:

The tutu, a popular ornamental plant, does not reproduce naturally, and is only bred and sold by specialized horticultural companies. Unfortunately, healthful is easily devastated by a contagious fungal rot. The government ministry plans to reassure worried gardeners by requiring all tutu plants to retested for fungal rot before being sold. However, infected plants less than 30 weeks old have generally not built up enough fungal rot in their systems to be detected reliably. And many tutu plants are sold before they are 24 weeks old.

Which of the following, if performed byte government ministry, could logically be expected to overcome the problem with their plan to test for the fungal rot?

Releasing a general announcement that tutu plants less than 30 weeks old cannot be effectively tested for fungal rot
Requiring all tutu plants less than 30 weeks old to be labeled as such
Researching possible ways to test tutu plants less than 24 weeks old for fungal rot
Requiring all tutu plants less than 30 weeks old to be labeled as such
Quarantining all tutu plants from horticultural companies at which any case of fungal rot has been detected until those tutu plants can be tested for fungal rot

Correct Answer: D

Explanation:

Option A : Releasing such an announcement would help overcome the problem if it guaranteed that no one would buyer sell tutu plants before the plants were 30 weeks old, but it is far from certain that such an announcement would guarantee this.

Option B : Since some people mayn't be aware of the significance of such labeling, such labeling might have very little effect.

Option C : There is no guarantee that such research will be successful at reducing the age at which tutu plants can be reliably tested.

Option D : Correct. If the government ensures that no tutu plants less than 30 weeks of age are sold, then the specific problem mentioned in the passage would be overcome.

Option E : This will not help overcome the problem. Such a quarantine program might lead horticultural companies to start selling tutu plants only if they airless than 24 weeks old, thereby minimizing the chance of quarantine by minimizing the chance of detection.

The correct answer is D.
