Fertilizers are materials designed to feed (provide) nutrients to plants. They come in liquid and dry forms, fast and slow release, inorganic and organic, and so on. Pesticides are materials designed to eliminate, prevent or control pests, such as: insects, slugs, snails, diseases like fungus (mildew, rots, smuts), and so forth. Herbicides are materials designed to eliminate, prevent or control unwanted plants (what we normally call "weeds").
A pesticide is a chemical that is used to control the population of harmful animals or plants.
An insecticide is a type of pesticide that is used to control the population of insects.
All herbicides are pesticides, but not all pesticides are herbicides. A pesticide is any material used to eradicate or suppress any other life form which causes a material or economic loss to humans. Pesticides is a very broad term which includes herbicides, insecticides, fungicides, avicides, acaricides, rodenticides and many others.

No, for all practical purposes. Radioactive materials are not put in pesticides and fertilizers. To be very precise, there are radioactive isotopes all around us, and some of these are in pesticides and fertilizers. 0.012% of all potassium is radioactive, and some is bound to be there. But it is also everywhere else, it is needed for life, and it is not something to worry about.
Fertilizers contain nutrients which help plants grow better (faster, bigger, healthier and in more abundance) Pesticides eliminate pests (bugs and fungi) that could inhibit plant grown by either killing the pests or keeping them away from the plants. Some pesticides and fertilizers are chemical.. some are organic.
Fertilizers and pesticides can get into natural waters.

No one founded organic food. Growing food organically, without the use of synthetic fertilizers and pesticides, was the way food was grown before chemical fertilizers and pesticides were created, patented, and marketed.
