Organ toxicity refers to substances that:

Organ toxicity specifically pertains to the harmful effects substances can have on particular organs in the body, such as the heart, liver, kidneys, and lungs. When a substance is classified as having organ toxicity, it means that the exposure to this substance can lead to damage or dysfunction in these specific organs, affecting their ability to function properly.

For instance, certain drugs or chemicals may be known to cause liver damage (hepatotoxicity), leading to conditions such as jaundice or liver failure. Similarly, some substances can adversely affect heart function, resulting in cardiovascular issues. This distinction underscores the importance of safety evaluations for drugs and chemicals to prevent targeted organ damage.

While the other options mention significant health concerns related to substances—such as carcinogenic effects, reproductive interference, or developmental issues—they do not fall under the category of organ toxicity since they refer to broader systemic effects or specific health outcomes rather than the targeted damage to individual organs.
