Electrodes would be inserted into the soil, and the current between them would kill bugs and weeds and make crop plants stronger Which of the following statement(s), if true, most strongly indicate(s) that the logic of the prediction above is flawed? A. The bugs that are beneficial to crop plants will also be eliminated when electricity is used. B. If the proposed plan for using electricity were put into practice, farmers would save on chemicals now being added to the soil. C. It cannot be taken for granted that the use of electricity is always beneficial. D. Since weeds are plants, electricity would affect weeds in the same way as it would affect crop plants. E. Because a planting machine would need to avoid coming into contact with the electrodes, new parts for planting machines would need to be designed ___
