Under the use of microorganisms, inorganic mercury can be converted into methylmercury and accumulate in the body of fish. After people eat this fish, methylmercury will enter the human brain cells, causing serious damage to the human nervous system. The person will go crazy to death. Japan's Minamata disease is caused by methylmercury. 2 Rechargeable batteries Rechargeable batteries generally contain the harmful heavy metal cadmium.
