Additional Information:
Some substances are useful because they are used for food, for
cooking, and cleaning purposes, for destroying harmful insects and for
keeping us healthy.
Certain substances or materials have harmful effects on people,
animals and plants when not used properly.
Chemicals are very useful to people. We use them daily. Soaps and
detergents are good cleaning agents and antiseptics. They kill germs and
bacteria that can cause diseases.
Chemical substances like medicines, vitamins, and minerals are
very helpful. Medicines help people fight diseases. Vitamins and minerals
help people and animals get strong and healthy. Fertilizers make soil rich
for the plants so they will grow well.
Helpful chemical substances can have harmful effects on living things too.
Medicines not taken in proper dosage can have harmful effects. Some drugs
like cough syrup and sleeping pills can cause dependency or addiction.
Some other drugs that have harmful effects on people are nicotine in
cigarettes, wine or alcohol, and coffee. They cause addiction. Addiction leads
to bad behavior, mental disorder, and oftentimes death.
Fertilizers are helpful but could kill if too much of them is applied to plants.
Pesticides help us rid of harmful insects. However, they can poison plants and
animals that are also helpful.
