Which pollutant is most likely elevated when using a gas stove without adequate ventilation?
A
Nitrogen dioxide and carbon monoxide, because combustion can emit NOx and CO indoors, irritating airways and reducing oxygen delivery.
B
Radon and asbestos, because gas stoves release soil gases and mineral fibers as normal byproducts of cooking.
C
Lead vapor, because natural gas contains lead that evaporates at room temperature and accumulates near ceilings.
D
Stratospheric ozone, because gas flames generate ultraviolet radiation that creates ozone at levels typical of outdoor smog.
