You are correct!!
En TICE should read,
Entanglements- a limb (or clothing) being pulled into machinery
Traps- Part of body caught between moving or passing machine parts
Impact- Body or limb hit by moving part
Contact- with sharp edges or hot parts etc
Ejection- Body struck by objects thrown out of machines
Apologies if I mislead you.

Then, because this part was especially difficult I had MANAMAPPS for the human factors, these being
Motivation
Aptitude
Needs
Attitude
Memory
Attention
Perception
Personality
Stress
Good luck with the course
