Lead is toxic, but do you know why?
a. lead is toxic mainly because it preferentially replaces other metals in biochemical reactions.
b. in so doing it interferes with the proteins that regulate blood pressure, heme production (which can lead to anemia) and sperm production.
c. lead also displaces calcium in the reactions that transmit electrical impulses in the brain, which diminishes the ability to think and recall information.

All the options are correct.

Explanation:

Lead is a p-block chemical element having atomic number 82 that belongs to the group 14 of the periodic table.

Lead is a highly toxic metal. It is a neurotoxin which affects the biological enzymes and damages the kidneys and nervous system, thus causing brain damage and behavioral problems.

It mimics and displaces other metals which act as cofactors in various enzymatic reactions. It also affects the blood pressure, heme synthesis and causes miscarriage in females and reduces the fertility in males.

this website is for anybody really not just for girls just saying, also while a lot of males are mean and you know there are the few who are kind and then there's the nice-guys but then theirs also guys like me who are shy we don't get out much because there are people like you who exist who would most likely punch a guy in the face so next time just think about things before you post them to a website where guys and girls can see your question.
