A PHN is learning about exposure risk assessments, which are used by policy makers and other regulators to evaluate the health effects from an environmental exposure. In these assessments, the final step in the process
 
  involves making a judgment about the risk of the health problems to those who are exposed. The nurse learns that this is referred to as a:
  A. Dose-response assessment
  B. Risk characterization
  C. Hazard identification
  D. Exposure assessment

Question 2

The PHN realizes that the mere presence of an agent, even if it is known to have toxic properties, does not necessarily mean there is a risk to health. However, the three routes of entry for chemical exposure include all of the following, except
 
  A. Ingestion
  B. Inhalation
  C. Dermal absorption
