  3. Question 2 2. Define disease. • Disease - A deleterious change in the body’s condition in response to an environmental factor.

  4. Question 3 3. What are three disease factors? Diet and nutrition, infectious agents, toxic chemicals, physical factors, and psychological stress all contribute to disease.

  5. Question 4 • Define emergent disease and give two examples. • An emergent disease is one never known before, or has been absent for at least 20 years. • Foot and Mouth Disease • Ebola

  6. Question 5 • Give two examples of ecological diseases. • Distemper (Seals) • Chronic Wasting Disease (Deer and Elk) • Transmissible Spongiform Encephalopathies • Black Band Disease (Coral)

  7. Question 6 • 6. What are some symptoms of the “sick building” syndrome? • Headaches, allergies, and chronic fatigue caused by poorly ventilated indoor air contaminated by molds, carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxides, and other toxic chemicals.

  8. Question 7 • 7. Define antagonistic reaction (chemical). • Antagonistic Reaction - One material interferes with the effects, or stimulates the breakdown, of other chemicals. (Aluminum ions remove phosphate ions from solution)

  9. Question 8 • 8. Define: LD50. • LD50 - Dose at which 50% of the test population is sensitive (dies).

  10. Question 9 • 9. What is the EPA’s definition of “acceptable risk”? • EPA generally assumes 1 in 1 million is acceptable risk for environmental hazards.

  11. Question 10 10. Contrast acute vs. chronic effects. • Acute Effects - Caused by a single exposure and result in an immediate health problem. • Chronic Effects - Long-lasting. Can be result of single large dose or repeated smaller doses.
