This question is different from the other question with same prompt. Please read carefully.
Dutch elm disease, which is caused by the fungus C. ulmi spread by adult scolytid beetles, has already destroyed 70 percent of the elms in Greenwood Forest. Another naturally occurring fungus, P. oblonga, kills larvae of the scolytid beetle. Forest rangers plan to introduce P. oblonga into Greenwood Forest in order to save the remaining mature elms.
Which of the following, if true about P. oblonga, provides the strongest evidence that the plan will succeed?
SB spreads C.U---> killed 70% of elms
What can stop SB? ------> P.OB
Result: Can save the remaining elms
Type: Strenghten
Prethinking: 1. Anything that speeds up the process
2. Killing SB doesn't lead to any other way that would kill elms.
3. Any support that indicates that killing of SB is easy and viable.
Option choices:
(A) It is spread by a variety of birds that nest in trees that are the home of scolytid beetle larvae. --->
Prethinking 1 in action(B) It has been known to lie dormant within a tree for up to ten years before it begins to reproduce.
Out of scope(C) It spreads more slowly than C. ulmi, under most climatic conditions.
Opposite of prethinking1-->weakens(D) It does not destroy some commonly found subspecies of scolytid beetles. -->
Weakens(E) It has been known to kill maple trees by destroying their root systems --->
Can it be any more out of scope? _________________
