For which of the following resources do weeds NOT compete with desirable plants?

Weeds compete with desirable plants for various resources that are necessary for growth and survival, such as space, water, and sunlight. However, pollen is not a resource for which weeds compete directly with desirable plants.

Pollen is involved in the plant reproductive process, specifically for fertilization within flowering plants. While fertilization and successful reproduction can influence a plant's overall health and ability to thrive, the competition for pollen does not occur in the same way as competition for the other listed resources. Desirable plants are primarily impacted by the competition for space, water, and sunlight, as these factors directly affect their growth and development.

Therefore, the correct answer indicates that while weeds can hinder plants in seeking vital resources, they do not engage in direct competition for pollen, allowing the competitive dynamics to differ significantly for this particular resource.
