This blog is intended to extend your knowledge on the effects of DDT exposure on the human cell. The following link leads to a site that I found very helpful in my studies: http://www.chem.duke.edu/~jds/cruise_chem/pest/ddtup.html.
1. How does DDT get into the cells and why does this pose a threat?

2. What is the importance of Potassium and Sodium inside nerve cells?

3. Why is the leaking of Sodium and Potassium dangerous?
