Solution(By Examveda Team)

Biological control component is central to advancing agricultural production. Among the given options Insect hormone analogues are used as a third generation pesticide.
Three insect hormones have been implicated in the control of division of labor in insect societies: juvenile hormone (JH), ecdysteroids and insulin.
Juvenile hormone analogues (JHAs) are a type of insect growth regulator used for pest control. In immature stages of insects, the titer of juvenile hormone (JH) is maintained at a high level to ensure larval growth and suppress metamorphosis.
