Metamorphosis - Correct Answer ✅💯changed through which insect passes in its growth
from egg to adult
Aerial Application - Correct Answer ✅💯most often conducted by helicopter using
microfoil boom types sprayer in remote areas or those inaccessible to ground equipment
Algae - Correct Answer ✅💯plants without true stems, leaves, or vascular systems.
Categories as plankton, filamentous, and macroscopic fresh-water
Allelopathy - Correct Answer ✅💯type of biological control that a plant produces a
chemical the inhibit the growth of nearby plants
American Elm - Correct Answer ✅💯40-100' umbrella-shaped tree and prefers moist
bottom lands, fruits in may
Ash Tree - Correct Answer ✅💯rapid growing 50-75' tall, fruits in Aug-Sep, drooping
clusters of single-winged seeds
Auxin - Correct Answer ✅💯accelerate cell growth and reproduction
Backpack Sprayer - Correct Answer ✅💯A self contained unit that is carried on the back of
the applicator usually with a 5 gal capacity. The nozzle configurations are very
interchangeable
Basal Spray Method - Correct Answer ✅💯applying herbicides to the lower portion of the
plant at any point in the year except when snow or ice cover the groundline.
Black Locust Tree - Correct Answer ✅💯rapid growing 30-60' and short-lived, fruits in late
autumn, smooth flat seed pods
Black Willow - Correct Answer ✅💯30-60' short trunk with spreading branches on stream
banks and lake shores, fruits in june
Boom Buster Nozzle - Correct Answer ✅💯Straight stream diffuse nozzle. The spray is split
by a plastic vane and forms a fan pattern very similar to the OC nozzle but produces larger
droplets.
Boomless Spraying - Correct Answer ✅💯Enables the application equipment to stay on the
tracks or roadside and spray areas off the side of the equipment. Results in a more uniform
speed and rate of application as well as faster speed.

ground foliage treatments - Correct Answer ✅💯1. A specific concentration of herbicide is

commonly called "spray to drip"
3. Larger volumes of mix are used to treat individual stems
4. Depending on brush size and density, the amount of herbicide applied per acre will vary
considerably

4. Avoid spraying near crops or sensitive areas
5. Only spray during proper weather and wind conditions
ch. 3 - 15 What steps can you take to avoid drift and accidental spraying of non target plants
when using high volume ground foliage treatments - Correct Answer ✅💯1. Do not treat
excessively tall brush

3. use as low a pressure as possible
4. use appropriate adjuvants to lessen drift potential
5. Avoid spraying next to crops and sensitive residential areas
6. Avoid spraying during unfavorable weather conditions
7. Spray parallel to the edge of the right of way or towards the center of the right of way.
ch. 3 - 16 Each pilot must be certified in the aerial standard in addition to right of way
category to make aerial applications on rights of way. True or False? - Correct Answer
✅💯True
ch. 3 - 17 What is the difference between conventional basal spraying and low volume basal
spraying - Correct Answer ✅💯Low volume is more concentrated
ch. 3 - 18 In low volume basal spraying, stems are completely encircled and wet to rundown?
