Taking part in the research is voluntary, but if you choose to take part, you waive the right to legal redress for any research-related injuries.

Step-by-step explanation:

Informed consent means getting permission from a person before doing health checkup and before involving them in research. During medical treatment, informed consent is mandatory.

In research field, Informed consent is given to make sure that the participant is aware of the risk and research processes.
