CONCLUSIONWe know that most elements are very much essential component of the living world. However, these elements can be harmful to human health and to the environment. If these elements are used in greater concentration and being abused, they will be dangerous. Moreover, they might result to death as well as to the destruction of the environment. People must be very much responsible for the proper utilization of these elements. In addition to, people must be aware and well-informed about the side effect or the dangers that the elements give.
