Nanotechnology poses several risks to human health and the environment according to the document. Nanoparticles can damage lungs in humans and animals, enter the body through skin, lungs and digestion, and the human body lacks immunity against novel substances which may be toxic. While nanotechnology provides benefits, the chemicals and nanoparticles used can endanger health and contribute to pollution if not properly addressed.

Search on the Internet some potential risks brought by nanotechnology? In a minimum of 5 sentences write your opinion about these risks.
Base on my research the following are some of the risk brought by nanotechnology. First, It can damage the lung to both human and animals. Second, Nanoparticles can get into the body through the skin, lungs and digestive system. And lastly, Human body has developed a tolerance to most naturally occurring elements and molecules that it has contact with. It has no natural immunity to new substances and is more likely to find them toxic.
Indeed, nanotechnology brings both positive outcomes as well as the potential risk to human body, rats and even to the other animals. That is because of the chemicals being used like metals and hydrocarbon being carried by nanotechnology. And it also contributed to pollution because of the nanoparticles being produced.
