How does exposure to pesticides primarily occur when they enter the body?

  1. Through the skin

  2. By eye contact

  3. By mouth

  4. Through inhalation

The correct answer is: Through the skin

Exposure to pesticides primarily occurs when they enter the body through the skin. This is because the skin is the largest organ of the body and can easily absorb chemicals from the environment. While eye contact and inhalation can also lead to exposure, they are considered secondary routes of entry compared to skin absorption. Ingestion of pesticides, or consuming them orally, is another possible route of exposure but is less common than dermal absorption. Therefore, option A is the most accurate answer.
