Questions and Answers

What are the main means of detecting toxicity according to the passage?

  • Death, pathological change, and biochemical change
  • Physiological change and changes in normal status
  • Biochemical change and physiological change
  • All of the above (correct)
  • What is the purpose of the LD50 assay mentioned in the passage?

  • To measure pathological changes
  • To assess physiological changes
  • To indicate toxicity through the measure of death (correct)
  • To detect biochemical changes
  • According to the passage, how can biochemical changes be indicative of toxicity?

  • By causing the appearance of an enzyme or other substance in body fluids due to tissue damage
  • By causing changes in blood pressure, temperature, or response to a stimulus
  • By affecting an enzyme through inhibition or alteration in a metabolic pathway (correct)
  • By leading to changes in body weight, food and water intake, urine output, and organ weight
