Unit VI Research Paper

Compare and contrast a toxin that affects the nervous system, one that affects the endocrine system, and another that affects the cardiovascular system. What characteristics are shared by these toxins, and what characteristics of these toxins make these toxins vulnerable to toxicity of these specific systems? This paper should be a minimum of two pages and utilize at least two reliable references in addition to the textbook. One of your references must be a peer-reviewed resource. All sources used, including the textbook, must be referenced; paraphrased and quoted material must have accompanying citations.

Unit VII PowerPoint Presentation

Pretend that you are participating in a public safety awareness forum and that you have been selected to deliver a presentation on the health risks of one of the toxic substance categories that we have covered in this unit. Create an eight- to ten-slide PowerPoint Presentation discussing the major toxicological concerns, including possible sources of exposure, symptoms of toxicity, and health risks to humans. Be sure to cite references on your last slide in proper APA format. You may either utilize the speakers’ notes feature to type the script of what you would say if you were to present the PowerPoint or record your voice speaking within the PowerPoint Presentation.
