Ok, so anyone who knows anything about radiation science knows it is deadly because it is rapidly replacing its neutron, while it does this it releases protons and electrons ( I think, correct me if I'm wrong ), so my question is, how is this deadly to humans, how is exposion to protons and electrons deadly?

Respuesta :

Radiation science is deadly to humans/ living organisms because it can cause damage to our cells and cancer.

Explanation:

  • The ionization of materials, basically replacing neutrons while it releases protons and electrons can cause the emission of harmful radiations, basically neutron radiation, proton radiation, X-rays, high-speed electrons gamma rays.
  • These waves are extremely harmful to humans. Being exposed to these waves for a long time can cause cancer and also tissue damage.
  • The above-mentioned waves are extremely powerful since it is capable of breaking chemical bonds. It can change the composition and chemical structure of animal cells. This would lead to harmful health problems.
