20
Q

Fires are classified into four main categories based on the type of material that is burning.

A

Class A, Class B, Class C, and Class D

21
Q

Categories of class A fires:

A

➢ Wood
➢ Paper
➢ Textiles
➢ Grass
➢ Trash

22
Q

Categories of class B fires:

A

➢ Grease
➢ Gasoline
➢ Oils
➢ Paints
➢ Kerosene
➢ Solvents

23
Q

Categories of class C fires:

A

➢ Electrical equipment
➢ Electrical Wiring

24
Q

Categories of class D fires:

A

➢ Sodium
➢ Potassium
➢ Titanium
➢ Magnesium

25
Q

These materials burn easily and create a fire that can often be extinguished with water.

A

Class A

26
Q
  • This type of fire is often encountered in kitchens, gas stations, or industrial settings where flammable liquids are handled regularly.
  • Do not use water because it can spread the fire.
  • It must be smothered to extinguish them.
  • Blanketing agents such as carbon dioxide, water-based foam, or a wet blanket may be used to smother a small Class B fire. This creates a barrier between the fuel and the oxygen in the air.
A

Class B

27
Q
  • Common causes of Class C fires include malfunctioning appliances, short circuits, and electrical overloads.
  • Do not use water on a Class C fire unless all power to the area has been cut off.
  • The fire fighter can suffer from severe electrical shock if water is used on a Class C fire.
  • High-pressure water fogs can be used so they can cool the fire without allowing electricity to flow through the water stream.
A

Class C

28
Q
  • Water and carbon dioxide will not control Class D fires because these materials provide a source of oxygen for the burning metal.
  • These fires must be controlled by removing air with a blanket of nonreactive powder like sodium chloride or graphite.
A

Class D

29
Q
  • Must be used for the different classes of fires.
  • Are marked with a combination of letters and colors for the class of fire on which they can be used.
A

fire extinguisher

30
Q

● Marked with an A in a green triangle.
● They are suitable for general fires in homes, offices, and schools.

A

Class A fire extinguisher

31
Q

● Marked with a B in a red square.
● These extinguishers are often found in areas where
such liquids are stored or used, like kitchens and garages.

A

Class B fire extinguishers

32
Q

● Marked with a C in a blue circle.
● Class C fire extinguishers can also be utilized to fight Class A and B fires.

A

Class C fire extinguisher

33
Q

● Marked with a D in a yellow five-pointed star.
● These fire extinguishers are typically utilized by the aircraft industry, auto body shops, and various manufacturers and factories that work with metals, and,other fire hazards related to metals.

A

Class D fire extinguisher

34
Q
  • Protection from biological harm to living things from diseases, pests, and bioterrorism.
A

Biosecurity

35
Q
  • Deliberate use of biological or chemical weapons.
A

Bioterrorism

36
Q
  • Deliberate use of biological or chemical weapons to bring harm to agricultural enterprises.
A

Agroterrorism

37
Q
  • Use of all possible means and procedures to guard against deliberate or incidental harm to the food production system.
A

Agrosecurity

38
Q

could be disastrous economically for a producer.

A

porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome (PRRS)

39
Q

presents a major threat to both the poultry industry and human health. Since no vaccines are available for certain diseases, biosecurity measures are the only effective defense against these threats .

A

avian influenza

40
Q

are among the agents that can cause significant harm to agricultural enterprises. These agents can be spread via wind, animals, and trade. It can also spread accidentally through the movement of people, vehicles, and equipment.

A

Pests, diseases, and chemicals

41
Q

Anything a producer does to prevent such destruction of the food industry can be considered?

A

agrosecurity

42
Q

has become an essential part of modern livestock management due to the growing risks associated with disease outbreaks.

A

Biosecurity

43
Q

For prevention, the livestock producers buy healthy animals and keep them away from their other herds for how many days? This period allows the livestock producer or manager to detect any diseases that the animal may have.

A

10 to 30 days
