What is a practical treatment used to counteract the effects of pesticide poisoning or some other poison in the body?

  1. Anticoagulant

  2. Antidote

  3. Attractant

  4. Avicide

The correct answer is: Antidote

An antidote is a substance that can neutralize the harmful effects of a poison in the body. Anticoagulants are medications that prevent blood from clotting and are typically used to treat conditions such as heart disease or stroke. Attractants are substances used to lure animals or insects towards something. Avicides are substances used to kill birds. While these may have some medicinal properties, they are not commonly used to treat pesticide poisoning or other types of poisoning. Therefore, the correct answer is B, as it directly addresses the specific issue of counteracting the effects of poisoning in the body.
