What health hazard is posed by electrical current flowing through the body?
Pick an answer to check it.
Answer: D. All these choices are correct
All these choices are correct. Current through the body can heat and burn tissue, disrupt the electrical signals of cells (including the heart), and cause muscles to contract so you may be unable to let go. Even fairly small currents can be deadly.
Tip: Current through you: burns, heart, grip.
