What does radiation poisoning do to people and animals?

Radiation poisoning occurs when individuals are exposed to high levels of ionizing radiation, leading to damage to cells, tissues, and DNA. Symptoms can include nausea, vomiting, hair loss, and in severe cases, organ failure and death. Both humans and animals can experience long-term health effects such as cancer and reproductive issues.


What four features of animals which are not affected at all by the environment and four which are?

How do animals living in the Galápagos Islands help support the theory of evolution?

They are a classic example of adaptive radiation. Most of the animals on the Islands are from South America and came to the Islands, diversified into many species which inhabit different Islands in the chain. The finches and tortoises are the best example of this adaptive radiation; just evolution over time.


How are animals affected by bad water quality?

Animals can be affected by bad water quality through ingestion of pollutants, which can lead to illness or death. Contaminated water can also harm aquatic species by disrupting their behavior, reproduction, and overall health. Additionally, changes in water quality can impact the availability of food sources for animals, further affecting their survival.
