Espaço para Resposta
Studies have provided evidence that Cd is a carcinogenic element and that acute
exposure can lead to death in humans and animals. Zn is an essential nutrient for
plants and animals and it is important for the biological functions of living tissues.
However, when present in high concentrations in the environment, Zn becomes toxic
to organisms. Chronic ingestion of Zn is also dangerous and may have negative
effects on the gastrointestinal and hematological systems.
