Correct option is D
Acute local (A)-(III): Acute local exposure refers to exposure for a short time (seconds to hours) and affects a
specific location on the body (e.g., skin burns).
Acute systemic (B)-(I): Acute systemic exposure affects
organs within the body and occurs after a brief exposure to a hazardous substance, impacting the body systemically.
Chronic local (C)-(IV): Chronic local exposure occurs
at a specific location over long periods, such as years, leading to localized damage (e.g., skin disorders due to continuous exposure to irritants).
Chronic systemic (D)-(II): Chronic systemic exposure involves
prolonged exposure affecting the entire body system over a long time, potentially causing diseases like cancer.
Key Points: · Acute exposure occurs in a short duration, while chronic exposure happens over extended periods.
· Local exposure impacts specific areas, while systemic exposure affects internal organs or the whole body.
· Examples of chronic systemic exposure include exposure to asbestos causing asbestosis or radiation leading to systemic cancer.
