The expression “other equally effective deterrents” means

  • A.preventive weapons which have equal effect of others
  • B.mechanism which scares everyone equally well
  • C.preventive equipment which is as effective as something already mentioned in the passage
  • D.deterrents that are as powerful as those the caterpillars have

Answer: B

Correct answer: preventive equipment which is as effective as something already mentioned in the passage

The word other points back to the claws and jaws named in the sentence before, and equally effective measures the new defences against those. So the phrase means defences that work as well as the weapons the caterpillar does not have.
