In virtually all types of tissue in every animal species, dioxin induces the production of enzymes that are the organism's attempt to metabolize, or render harmless, the chemical irritant
总结如下:这句用了省略;render sth harmless (这样og的解释就好理解了:The phrase the chemical irritant is also the most concise and precise conclusion for the sentence because it clearly refers to the dioxin mentioned earlier.); dioxin( 一种化学物)导致了酶的产生,这些酶是生物体的尝试为了新陈代谢(分解)这种化学刺激物(dioxin),或是使这种化学刺激物无害.
