The approximate LD50 of the least toxic substance will be 130 mg/Kg.

The dose necessary to cause the death of 50% of a population under test after a predetermined test period is known as the LD50 value for a drug.
Commonly used as a broad indicator of a substance's acute toxicity are LD50 values.
Greater toxicity is indicated by a lower LD50. A low LD50 of 500 mg/kg or less implies severe toxicity.
Moderate toxicity is indicated by an LD50 of 500 to 1,000 mg/kg. A modest toxicity level of 1,000 to 2,000 mg/kg is indicated.
The species is especially vulnerable to the poison if the LD50 is low. The lethal dose (LD50) of a specific poison might change significantly between several animal species.
Thus out of all the options, LD50 130 mg/kg will have the lowest toxicity and 20 mg/kg will be the highest.

Anatomy of the liver: an outline with three levels of complexity--a further step towards tailored territorial liver resections.

QveST [7]

Depending on the purpose for which the description is needed, there are three various levels of complexity at which the vascular architecture of the liver might be described:

The first level, known as the conventional level, is equivalent to Couinaud's classic 8-segment scheme and serves as a common language for doctors from other disciplines to define the location of localized hepatic lesions.
The true branching of the hepatic veins and the main portal pedicles is taken into consideration in the second, surgical level, which will be used for anatomical liver resections and transplantations. Modern surgical and radiological procedures may fully exploit this anatomy, but doing so involves acknowledging that the Couinaud scheme is oversimplified and examining the vascular architecture objectively.
The third degree of complexity, known as the academic level, is focused on the anatomist and the requirement to provide a systematization that clarifies the apparent conflicts between anatomical literature, radiological imaging, and surgical practice.
