9. DISEASE OF THE LUNGS CAUSED DUE TO DUST
I. PARTICLE SIZE: ALL DUST PARTICLE ARE NOT HARMFUL TO HUMAN
BEING. DUST PARTICLES OF SIZE 0.1µ TO 5µ ARE HARMFUL AS THEY
CAN ENTER THE LUNGS. ON THE CONTRARY DUST PARTICLE MAY
NOT BE HARMFUL WHOSE SIZE IS LESS THAN 0.1µ OR GREATER
THAN 5µ DUE TO THE FACT THAT PARTICLE < 0.1 µ OR >5µ DO NOT
SETTLE INSIDE THE ALUEOLUS
