Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Tolorance occurs when an organism shows less of a response to a toxin than it did in a previous exposure. Veterinarians often know exactly what type of poison is affecting an animal. Exposure to a toxin can only happen through eating the toxin. Plant poisons do not affect domestic pets like dogs and cats.
Detailed explanation-2: -Baking chocolate has the highest concentration of theobromine and therefore has the highest degree of toxicity, followed by semi-sweet and dark chocolate, then milk chocolate and finally products containing chocolate flavouring such as milk and cookies.
