The agent to which the subject was exposed is conveyed as a *Direct* participation or specialization there-of.

*Constraints:* The following Participations should be used with the following Roles and Entities to distinguish the specific entities:

 *  The ***exposed entity*** is the entity of interest that is the recipient of the exposure and potentially affected. This is conveyed through the subject (SBJ) Participation.
 *  An entity that has carried the agent transmitted in the exposure is the &quot;***exposure source***&quot; (EXSRC). For example:
    
     *  a person or animal who carried an infectious disease and interacts (EXSRC) with another person or animal (SBJ) transmitting the disease agent; or
     *  a place or other environment (EXSRC) and a person or animal (SBJ) who is exposed in the presence of this environment.
 *  When it is unknown whether a participating entity is the source of the agent (EXSRC) or the target of the transmission (SBJ), also known as &quot;***exposure contact***&quot;, the &quot;participant&quot; (PART) is used.
