What Are the Biological Factors Influencing Toxicity?
Several biological factors can influence the toxicity of a substance, including:
Age: Young and elderly individuals may be more susceptible to toxins due to immature or decreased physiological functions. Gender: Hormonal differences can influence the metabolism and toxicity of certain substances. Genetic Variability: Genetic differences can affect how individuals metabolize and respond to toxins. Health Status: Pre-existing health conditions can increase vulnerability to toxic effects.
