Question

blank are highly toxic chemicals formed by burning trash or leaded gasoline and from the manufacturing of some pesticides they are also known as environmental pollutants

Answer 1

The substances you're referring to are **dioxins**. Dioxins are highly toxic compounds that can be produced during the burning of trash, particularly when plastics and other materials are incinerated. They can also be released during the combustion of leaded gasoline and are byproducts in the manufacture of certain pesticides. Dioxins are considered persistent environmental pollutants and can accumulate in the food chain, posing significant health risks to humans and wildlife.
