The larvae of mosquitoes die when oil is spread on the water. Why does it happen? Give a proper reason.​

Respuesta :

Answer:

The thin layer of oil on top of the water prevents mosquito breeding in two ways: mosquito larvae in the water cannot penetrate the oil film with their breathing tube,and so drown and die; also adult mosquitoes do not lay eggs on the oiled water
