Which of the following describes a condition that could be a safety risk?

A condition that could be a safety risk is the absence of ground fault receptacles in the bathroom. Ground fault circuit interrupters (GFCIs) are designed to prevent electrical shock by shutting off power when they detect an imbalance in electrical current. Wet areas, such as bathrooms, pose a higher risk of electrical hazards, making GFCIs essential for safety. Without these safety devices, there is an increased risk of electrocution, especially in a setting where water and electricity can interact.

While a malfunctioning dishwasher may present issues such as water damage or inconvenience, it does not directly cause an immediate safety risk related to electrical hazards in the same way that the absence of GFCIs does. The situation regarding the sellers divorcing is more of a personal matter that does not impact safety or structural integrity. Lastly, a rumor about a house being haunted is purely anecdotal and has no bearing on safety risks inherent to the structure itself.
