Linear Dose-Response Model

The linear dose-response model describes how the amount of a substance (dose) relates to its effect (response). In this model, the response increases proportionally as the dose increases, forming a straight line when plotted on a graph. For example, if doubling the dose of a chemical doubles its effect, it follows a linear relationship. This simple model helps predict the effect of different doses and is often used in risk assessment and toxicology to understand how exposure levels might impact health or safety outcomes.
