Going about her cleaning routine as usual, Jayla sprays an aerosol bleach cleanser in her bathroom and then leaves to let it air

out before she scrubs it down. Only two or three minutes later, she notices her cat, Grimaldi, fleeing the bathroom, coughing. Jayla hadn’t realized that Grimaldi was in the bathroom when she sprayed the chemical, so she rushes over to check on him. He seems to be wheezing and shaking a bit. Calling the vet, he asks Jayla to explain how Grimaldi was exposed to the chemical. Hearing Jayla’s explanation, which method of poisoning will the vet MOST likely assume Grimaldi is dealing with?
ingested poison

absorbed poison

injected poison

inhaled poison

Medicine

Answer:

inhaled poison

Explanation:

Grimaldi was inside the bathroom when Jayla sprayed the aerosol bleach cleanser. The molecules of this cleanser spread quickly through the surroundings. Since the cat was inside the bathroom, it could have inhaled the bleach and the poison reached its lungs. This caused symptoms of wheezing, which is respiratory in nature, and shaking (seizures). Inhaling a poison leads to difficult in breathing among animals because it can cause the lungs to be inflamed.
