AModerate toxicity
BHigh toxicity
CRecommended toxicity
DLow toxicity
AI Explanation
The correct answer is B) High toxicity. On a Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS), the term "high toxicity" is used to describe a chemical that can produce a life-threatening or seriously disabling health hazard. This is in accordance with the Globally Harmonized System (GHS) of Classification and Labeling of Chemicals, which is the recognized standard for hazard communication on MSDSs. The other options are incorrect because "moderate toxicity" (A) and "low toxicity" (D) refer to less severe health hazards, while "recommended toxicity" (C) is not a standard term used on MSDSs.
