The correct Answer is:
To solve the question regarding TLV (Threshold Limit Value) and its implications, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding TLV**: TLV stands for Threshold Limit Value, which is a guideline that indicates the maximum concentration of a toxic substance in the air that a worker can be exposed to without experiencing adverse health effects. 2. **Context of TLV**: TLV is specifically concerned with occupational health and safety. It is designed to protect workers in industrial settings where they may be exposed to hazardous substances. 3. **Evaluating the Options**: - **Option A**: "be present in a mine" - This does not directly relate to TLV, as TLV is not specific to mining environments. - **Option B**: "not be present in an industry" - This is incorrect because TLV does not imply that a substance cannot be present; rather, it specifies a safe level of exposure. - **Option C**: "be tolerated by a worker in his surrounding atmosphere" - This option accurately reflects the purpose of TLV, which is to indicate the level of a toxic substance that a worker can tolerate in their work environment without adverse effects. 4. **Conclusion**: Based on the definitions and evaluations of the options, the correct answer is **Option C**: TLV indicates the permissible level of toxic substance that can be tolerated by a worker in his surrounding atmosphere. ### Final Answer: C) be tolerated by a worker in his surrounding atmosphere. ---
