The term "allergic effects" or "allergy" is used to describe a hypersensitivity reaction to a specific substance. This is most commonly seen in the form of dermatitis or asthma-like symptoms. "Contact effects" (option A) may refer to the specific type of hypersensitivity reaction known as contact dermatitis, where the substance comes into contact with the skin. "Toxicity" (option B) refers to adverse effects caused by a toxic substance, which is different from an allergic reaction. "Exposure" (option C) may refer to the process of coming into contact with the allergen, but it does not specifically describe the reaction itself.
