What level of toxicity is indicated when the signal word "Caution" appears on a pesticide label?

Highly toxic, Hazard Class I
Moderately toxic Hazard Class II
Slightly toxic Hazard Class III
Hazard Class IV, Slight concern for injury

The correct answer is: Slightly toxic Hazard Class III

When the signal word "Caution" appears on a pesticide label, it indicates that the product is slightly toxic in terms of its acute toxicity level. This means that ingesting, inhaling, or dermal exposure to the pesticide may result in mild or moderate adverse effects, but are not likely to cause life-threatening situations. The other options may be incorrect because they indicate higher levels of toxicity, which would likely have a more severe warning label such as "Warning" or "Danger". Additionally, the remaining options refer to different hazard classes, which may be associated with different types of hazards such as corrosivity or irritancy, rather than toxicity. Therefore, the most appropriate and accurate answer is C.
