25
addition or removal of an electron with the usual result of ejecting an electron
ionization
26
radiation is incapable of ionizing atomic or molecular systems through a single interaction but excites it
non-ionizing radiation
27
excitation of atoms produces _
heat
28
the effects of radiation are determined on how much radiation was irradiated
basis of effect
29
radiation exposure-based symptoms can be evident upon exposure or in a later period of time
alarming effect
30
gametes or sex cells
germ cells
31
less radiosensitive (recovery)
female
32
radiosensitive (recovery)
male
33
reproductive organ is _, skin is the only thing protecting it
exposed
34
fully matured cells (recovery)
most of the cells created by those systems are fully matured high chance of recovery when it exposed to radiation.
35
immature cells (recovery)
- if immature 2 things nothing or higher chance of damage since immature siya di siya nakakapag mature
36
how are specific radiation made
energy interaction between atoms. specifically it is formed within the electrons
37
Other radiation?
energy can influence matt3er in many ways
38
Radiation not related for diagnosis and therapeutics?
- Since those radiation are not needed, it is better to understand how they are used.
39
can cause cancer but it’s really rare (Cellphone signal and wifi signal)
microwaves
40
is heat or thermal scans; ginagamit sa airport: heat
infrared
41
the strongest light; red is weaker; can be used for disinfection but cannot disinfect everything
ultraviolet light
42
natural radiation
cosmic rays terrestrial radiation internally deposited radionuclides
43
-High energy radiation that originates from outside the Earth’s atmosphere
cosmic rays
44
radiation emitted by naturally occurring radioactive materials
terrestrial radiation
45
ex. radon
terrestrial radiation
46
some metals emit radiation ex. raidum
terrestrial radiation
47
dispersed forms that enter the body through inhalation, ingestion, by some form of injection, or, in some cases, by percutaneous absorption.
internally deposited radionuclides
