Toxicant Causes Resproductive Toxicity

Toxicant Causes Resproductive Toxicity

In the assigned reading for this unit, you learned about various chemicals that induce reproductive toxicity. Not limiting yourself to the chemicals that are mentioned in the assigned reading, identify a toxicant that causes reproductive toxicity.

 Develop a research paper that includes the following: 

1. background information on the toxicant, its use, and routes of exposure; 

2. the process by which this toxicant causes reproductive toxicity and the concentration of exposure; 

3. ways exposure to the toxicant might be limited, treated, and/or effects reversed; and 

4. recent research findings (within the last five years) on this toxicant. 

The research paper should be a minimum of three pages in length, not including the title and reference pages, and written in APA format with proper in-text citations and references. The paper should utilize at least three credible sources that include at least one peer reviewed journal article published within the last five years.
