Read the information in thePrecautions when dealing with art materials used for drawing booklet, then answer the following questions


Questions and Answers
  • 1. 

    Which of the following is NOT a common way that hazardous art materials can enter the body.

    • A.

      Through the blood system

    • B.

      Through ingestion

    • C.

      Through inhallation

    • D.

      Through skin contact

    Correct Answer
    A. Through the blood system
    Explanation
    Hazardous art materials can enter the body through ingestion, inhalation, and skin contact. However, they cannot enter through the blood system as it is not a common pathway for these materials to enter the body.

    Which of the following in NOT a likely way that you can ingest harmful substances in the art studio?

    • A.

      Drinking while working with art materials

    • B.

      Not washing hands after using art materials

    • C.

      Making art when not wearing shoes

    • D.

      Eating while working with art materials

    Correct Answer
    C. Making art when not wearing shoes
    Explanation
    Making art when not wearing shoes is not a likely way to ingest harmful substances in the art studio because harmful substances are typically ingested through the mouth or by touching contaminated surfaces and then touching the mouth or face. Not wearing shoes does not increase the risk of ingesting harmful substances unless the artist is intentionally putting their feet in contact with the materials and then ingesting them.

  • 3. 

    Which of the following is NOT a symptom of poisoning from inhallation?

    • A.

      Headache

    • B.

      Dizziness

    • C.

      Sneezing

    • D.

      Itching skin

    Correct Answer
    D. Itching skin
    Explanation
    Itching skin is not a symptom of poisoning from inhalation. Poisoning from inhalation typically presents symptoms such as headache, dizziness, and sneezing. Itching skin may be a symptom of other conditions or allergies, but it is not directly associated with poisoning from inhalation.

    Rate this question:

  • 4. 

    Which of the following is the MOST common way that harmful substances can effect the skin

    • A.

      Skin irritation

    • B.

      Cuts in the skin

    • C.

      Being absorbed through the skin

    • D.

      Burning

    Correct Answer
    A. Skin irritation
    Explanation
    Skin irritation is the most common way that harmful substances can affect the skin. When the skin comes into contact with irritants such as chemicals, allergens, or toxins, it can cause redness, itching, inflammation, and discomfort. Skin irritation can occur due to various factors, including exposure to harsh substances, allergic reactions, or prolonged contact with certain materials. This is a common response of the skin to protect itself from potential harm and to signal that something is wrong. Skin irritation can range from mild to severe, depending on the individual and the specific irritant involved.

    Which of the following has been identified as one of the greatest hazard to artists?

    • A.

      The chemicals used by the artist

    • B.

      The artist's lack of awareness of the nature of their materials

    • C.

      Artists refusing to follow safety protocols

    • D.

      Poor labelling of materials

    Correct Answer
    B. The artist's lack of awareness of the nature of their materials
    Explanation
    One of the greatest hazards to artists is their lack of awareness of the nature of their materials. Artists who are not knowledgeable about the chemicals they use may unknowingly expose themselves to harmful substances, leading to health issues. It is important for artists to educate themselves about the materials they work with and take necessary precautions to ensure their safety.

  • 6. 

    To minimise the problems involved with certain materials such as solvents, powders and dusts,  strict housekeeping is required. Which of the following  constitute these strict housekeeping measures? (More than one answer)

    • A.

      Provide good ventilation.

    • B.

      Keep surfaces uncluttered.

    • C.

      Vacuum, rather than sweep, dusty workplaces.

    • D.

      Air condition the premises

    • E.

      Organize the work area.

    Correct Answer(s)
    A. Provide good ventilation.
    B. Keep surfaces uncluttered.
    C. Vacuum, rather than sweep, dusty workplaces.
    E. Organize the work area.
    Explanation
    Strict housekeeping measures to minimize problems with certain materials such as solvents, powders, and dusts include providing good ventilation to ensure proper air circulation and prevent the accumulation of harmful substances. Keeping surfaces uncluttered helps to reduce the risk of spills and accidents. Vacuuming, rather than sweeping, dusty workplaces helps to control the spread of dust particles and prevent them from becoming airborne. Organizing the work area ensures that materials are stored properly and easily accessible, reducing the chances of accidents or contamination. Air conditioning the premises, although it may contribute to a comfortable working environment, is not specifically mentioned as a strict housekeeping measure for dealing with these materials.

    True or FalseStore all liquids, particularly volatile solvents, in tightly capped containers

    • A.

      True

    • B.

      False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    It is important to store all liquids, especially volatile solvents, in tightly capped containers to prevent evaporation and minimize the risk of spills or leaks. Tightly capped containers help to maintain the integrity of the liquid and prevent any potential hazards or accidents. By securely sealing the containers, the chances of exposure to harmful fumes or the possibility of fire or explosion are greatly reduced. Therefore, it is crucial to store liquids in tightly capped containers to ensure safety and proper storage.

    True or FalseApplying hand lotion restores natural oils that might be lost from the skin when using solvents.

    • A.

      True

    • B.

      False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    Applying hand lotion restores natural oils that might be lost from the skin when using solvents. This is because solvents can strip the skin of its natural oils, leaving it dry and dehydrated. Hand lotion helps to replenish these oils, providing moisture and nourishment to the skin. Therefore, it is true that applying hand lotion can restore the natural oils lost from the skin when using solvents.

    True or FalseClose the windows or doors to prevent cross-ventilation for low-level toxic substances such as turpentine.

    • A.

      True

    • B.

      False

    Correct Answer
    B. False
    Explanation
    Closing the windows or doors does not prevent cross-ventilation for low-level toxic substances such as turpentine. In fact, closing the windows and doors can actually trap these substances indoors, leading to a higher concentration and potentially causing harm to individuals. It is important to ensure proper ventilation and air circulation when dealing with toxic substances to minimize the risk of exposure.

    Rate this question:

  • 10. 

    True or False"The total body burden" is usually developed after sudden ingestion of poisonous materials

    • A.

      True

    • B.

      False

    Correct Answer
    B. False
    Explanation
    The statement is false because "the total body burden" refers to the accumulation of toxic substances in the body over time, typically through repeated exposure or long-term exposure to low levels of toxins. It is not developed after sudden ingestion of poisonous materials.
