• heavy metal

• harmful solvent

• volatile organic compound or vapor

• pesticide

• radiation

• Possible sources of each contaminant within your environment

• Effects on plants and humans

• How each contaminant is absorbed--route of exposure--and distributed--transport

• Toxic response, or symptoms

• How each contaminant is eliminated, or detoxification

• Effect on the environment

• What to do if you are exposed: What is the treatment?

Include a slide for introduction and one for conclusion.

Cite your sources for each slide.

Use the speaker notes within the presentation as if you were giving an oral presentation along with the slides.
