Answer:

a contaminant concentration

Explanation:

The concentration of the ingested contaminant determines the toxicity potential of the contaminant. All chemicals are acute toxicants if they are ingested in large amounts. The target organs and mechanism of action of these toxicants may vary but their potential to become toxic depends entirely on their absorption concentration. For example, Ethanol causes CNS depression but may lead to Liver cirrhosis if the concentration in body is very high.

The correct answer is option A. False.

Explanation:

John Scott Haldane described a property of hemoglobin which is termed as the Haldane effect. Displacement of carbon dioxide from the hemoglobin of blood by oxygen in the lungs. It promotes the removal of CO₂ from the blood. This process is the Haldane effect.

Decrease in the affinity of the oxygen to binding with hemoglobin in response to a decrease in blood pH due to increased CO₂ concentration in the blood. It is the Bohr effect.

Thus, the correct answer is option A. false.
