What does chronic toxicity of pesticides refer to?

Immediate and severe poisoning from a pesticide
Short-term effects of pesticide exposure
Long-term injury from repeated, prolonged exposure to small amounts of pesticide
Resistance to pesticides

The correct answer is: Long-term injury from repeated, prolonged exposure to small amounts of pesticide

Chronic toxicity of pesticides refers to the long-term injury that can result from repeated and prolonged exposure to small amounts of pesticides. This type of toxicity may not cause immediate or severe poisoning like acute toxicity, but it can lead to health issues over time due to continuous low-level exposure. It is important for pesticide applicators to be aware of and take precautions to minimize the risks associated with chronic toxicity by following proper safety protocols and using appropriate personal protective equipment.
