UON Biology environmental chemicals Question

Each day we are all exposed to environmental chemicals through our diet, personal care products we use, occupation, etc. Your assignment is to become aware of exposures that you have incurred over the past week or two.

Choose one chemical that you have been exposed to and then, in the context of what you have learned from the basic principles (i.e. exposure, absorption, metabolism, etc.) and applied toxicology (i.e. potential for causing adverse effects, risk from exposure, biomarker of exposure, etc.) lectures, write an op-ed article on the importance of this chemical and your concerns about exposure to it with regard to potential adverse health effects it may cause.
