Answer to Question 1

Pruning dead and diseased limbs and burning diseased limbs have a big impact on
diseases and insects. These cultural practices help to break up the life cycle of insects



Answer to Question 2

Genetic engineering has allowed scientists to take genes from one organism and place
them in another to alter the characteristics of plants and animals. Plants that are
resistant to insects and are more tolerant to herbicides have been developed.
