Urban gardeners should not be overly concerned about lead poisoning from edible plants they grow
  because plants do not take up large amounts of lead and what is taken up is concentrated mainly in the
  leafy parts of the plant, rather than seeds and fruit.


 
  Indicate whether the statement is true or false.

Question 2

In urban settings, heavy metals tend to rise to high levels because of settling of urban dust, air
  pollution, paint chips, and industrial waste, as well as soil amendments and fertilizers containing low
  amounts of heavy metals.


 
  Indicate whether the statement is true or false.
