Sample questions
When preparing a tank mixture that includes Mentor and other products, how should the mixture be completed?
- Mix all products together simultaneously in the tank
- Add Mentor, then add the rest of the water, then allow other products to dissolve while maintaining agitation
- Mix all products in a separate container before adding to the spray tank
- Add Mentor last after all other ingredients have dissolved
Show answer
Add 1/3 of the required amount of plain water to the spray or mixing tank with the agitator running, drop the required amount of Mentor into the tank all at once, continue agitation while adding the remainder of the water, then allow other products to dissolve. Maintain agitation until a uniform suspension is achieved.🔗 Source
When mixing Mentor alone in a spray tank, what is the correct sequence of steps?
- Add all Mentor first, then add 1/3 water, then add the rest of the water
- Add the required Mentor, then add all water while agitating
- Add 1/3 of the required water with the agitator running, add Mentor all at once, and continue agitation while adding the remainder of the water
- Add the required amount of water, then add Mentor slowly over 30 minutes
Show answer
Add 1/3 of the required amount of plain water to the spray or mixing tank with the agitator running, then drop the required amount of Mentor into the tank all at once. Continue agitation while adding the remainder of the water.🔗 Source
What is the primary mode of action for Mentor in disrupting fungal pathogens?
- Inhibiting sterol biosynthesis by acting as a demethylation inhibitor (DMI)
- Destroying cell walls through contact with intertidal areas
- Increasing oxygen levels in the water to prevent fungal growth
- Acting as a broad-spectrum insecticide to reduce pathogen populations
Show answer
It belongs to Group 3 fungicides and works as a demethlyation inhibitor (DMI) of sterol biosynthesis to disrupt membrane synthesis in fungal pathogens.🔗 Source
