Question
Chapter 20, Problem 27E
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation: We have to explain how the radiation emitted by a radioactive material affects living organisms.
Concept introduction: The radioactive radiations ionize the bio-molecules present inside the living organisms. These radiations damage the living tissues when ingested into the living bodies.
To explain: How the radiation affects living organisms.
