Which of the following poses a risk of oral pesticide exposure?

  1. Proper handwashing before eating

  2. Accurate use of respirators

  3. Consumption of fresh fruits

  4. Accidental splashing in mouth

The correct answer is: Accidental splashing in mouth

Accidental splashing in the mouth poses a risk of oral pesticide exposure as the mouth is one of the main entry points for pesticides into the body. Options A, B, and C do not involve direct contact with pesticides and therefore do not pose a risk of oral pesticide exposure. It is important to practice proper handwashing before eating to prevent ingestion of any pesticide residue on hands, and to accurately use respirators to prevent inhaling pesticide fumes. While consumption of fresh fruits may indirectly expose individuals to residual pesticides, the risk of oral exposure is still lower compared to potential direct contact through accidental splashing in the mouth.
