    • Camel

    • Parrot

    • Butterfly

    • Hummingbird

    Correct Answer
    A. Hummingbird
    Explanation
    Hummingbirds are associated with pineapple because they are known to pollinate pineapple plants. They have long beaks that allow them to reach deep into the pineapple flowers and extract nectar, while also transferring pollen from one flower to another.

    The wilt disease of pineapple is vectored by _________

    • Rats

    • Aphids

    Correct Answer
    A. Mealybugs
    Explanation
    Mealybugs are the vectors for the wilt disease of pineapple. These small insects feed on the sap of plants, including pineapple, and can transmit the disease-causing pathogens from infected plants to healthy ones. Their feeding activity weakens the pineapple plants, making them more susceptible to wilt disease. Therefore, controlling and managing mealybug populations is crucial in preventing the spread of this disease in pineapple plantations.
