Question

question 4 of 5
when the body receives a current of ____ milliamps, death is probable, severe burns, and cardiac arrest occurs.
options (blue buttons): 100, 1000, 10,000, 100,000

Explanation:

In electrical safety, a current of 100 milliamps (mA) is known to cause probable death, severe burns, and cardiac arrest. Lower currents may cause injury, but 100 mA is the threshold for these severe effects. The other options (1,000, 10,000, 100,000 mA) are extremely high and not typical for such a context (or represent very different scenarios like high - voltage industrial faults, but the question is about the body's response to current, and 100 mA is the correct value for this description).

Answer:

100 (the option with "100" as the text)
