  1. Organic food is supposed to be better for human consumption because :
    1. It is grown in glass house & air tight environment.
    2. It is grown without the use of chemicals & synthetic pesticides.
    3. It depends on chemicals & fertilizers.
    4. It is too expensive to buy.
Correct Option: B

There are at least two good arguments for eating organic: fewer pesticides and more nutrients. In the absence of pesticides and fertilizers, plants boost their production of the phytochemicals (vitamins and antioxidants) that strengthen their resistance to bugs and weeds. A major new study has found that organic foods contain higher levels of antioxidants and less harmful chemicals than conventionally farmed produce.
