Answer to Question 1

When considering the question of whether trace amounts of pesticides can be harmful to humans, it is important to remember:

1 . Modern pesticides have a low level of toxicity to humans, and would require a considerable amount, even at full strength, to be lethal.
2 . Almost all substances can be toxic or hazardous if ingested in sufficient amounts.

Answer to Question 2

The three basic categories of concerns about food safety are:

1 . Pesticides and chemical residues in food
2 . Healthiness of food
3 . Cleanliness of food
