Which regulatory method aims to prevent the introduction and spread of plant and animal pests into new areas?

Rate of Application
Quarantine
Pupa
Pump

The correct answer is: Quarantine

Quarantine is the correct answer because it is the regulatory method that aims to prevent the introduction and spread of plant and animal pests into new areas. Quarantine measures are put in place to restrict the movement of potentially harmful organisms to protect agriculture, the environment, and public health. This control method helps prevent the establishment and spread of invasive species which can cause significant damage to ecosystems and agricultural crops. Rates of Application (A), Pupa (C), and Pump (D) are not regulatory methods related to preventing the introduction and spread of plant and animal pests into new areas. Rates of Application refer to the amount of pesticide being applied, Pupa is a life stage of certain insects, and Pump is a device used for transferring pesticides during application.
