A. PCBs
B. organochlorines
C. olefins
D. heterocyclic compounds
✅ The correct answer is option C.
The common pesticides which are in use consist of olefins. Olefin, also called alkene, compound made up of hydrogen and carbon that contains one or more pairs of carbon atoms linked by a double bond. Olefins are examples of unsaturated hydrocarbons (compounds that contain only hydrogen and carbon and at least one double or triple bond).
