What do we call a biological agent or condition that is a hazard to humans or the environment?

Beliefs
Biohazard
Bladder training
Blood pressure

The correct answer is: Biohazard

The term used to describe a biological agent or condition that poses a risk to humans or the environment is "biohazard." A biohazard typically refers to materials such as pathogens, biological toxins, or infectious agents that can cause harm to health or the environment. This classification is crucial in healthcare and various industries to ensure proper handling, disposal, and safety protocols to prevent contamination and disease spread. The other options do not relate to biological risks; "beliefs" refers to personal convictions or opinions without any biological significance, "bladder training" pertains to the management of urinary function, and "blood pressure" is a measure of the force of blood against the arteries, neither of which addresses biological hazards in the same way.
