Question

how can you manage hazards associated with breathing in welding fumes? select the best option. holding your breath wearing a medical mask using adequate ventilation taking breaks

Explanation:

• "Holding your breath" is not a practical or long - term solution for managing welding fume hazards as it can't be sustained during welding work.
• "Wearing a medical mask" is not sufficient as medical masks are not designed to filter out welding fumes effectively.
• "Using adequate ventilation" helps to remove the welding fumes from the work area, reducing the concentration of harmful particles in the air that workers breathe.
• "Taking breaks" does not actively manage the fume hazard while working; it just reduces exposure time but doesn't address the presence of fumes in the work environment.

Answer:

C. Using adequate ventilation
