What are 3 reasons radiation sickness varies?
Radiation sickness varies depending upon duration of exposure, whether it was an internal or external exposure, and the dosage of radiation.
What are three reasons radiation sickness symptoms vary?
Individual sensitivity Radiation dose absorbed type of radiationRadiation sickness varies based on the amount of expsure of radiation and how particular person's body reacts to the radiation poisoning. It also depends on how the radiation poisoning entered the body: Oral, inhalation or total body exposure.
What can happen if you are exposed to large amounts of radiation?
The answer to this question varies dramatically depending on the TYPE of radiation involved, as there are many; as well as how the "large amounts of radiation" are received.-First there are two different main types of radiation, and within each type there are different subtypes, each having differing effects in overdose:Electromagnetic radiation - e.g. radio, TV, microwave, infrared, light, ultraviolet, x-ray, gamma ray.Particulate radiation - e.g. alpha, beta, gamma, neutron, cosmic ray, heavy ion.- Note: The gamma ray listed as electromagnetic radiation and gamma listed under particulate radiation are the same radiation, but at that very high energy per photon particle quantum mechanics makes it impossible to clearly say it is either an electromagnetic wave or a particle.-The effects of overdose exposure of each of the above listed types of radiation are:radio - very difficult to impossible to overdoseTV - very difficult to impossible to overdosemicrowave - you get cooked inside, this is called "deep tissue burns" and can be instantly fatal in some casesinfrared - thermal skin burnslight - very difficult to impossible to overdose, except directly to the eyes which produces temporary blindnessultraviolet - sunburn, exposure to the eye will cause permanent blindnessx-ray - radiation sickness/poisoningalpha (external exposure) - intact skin shields 100% of alpha particle radiation, impossible to overdosealpha (internal exposure) - cancerbeta - beta burns, on skin resembles a very very bad sunburn (but may be in small dots around the points of contact with beta emitting fallout grains), internally it is usually fatal as it causes massive tissue deathgamma - radiation sickness/poisoningneutron - radiation sickness/poisoning, also will make you radioactive (no other type of radiation will do this)cosmic ray - on the surface of earth the atmosphere is such a good shield that it is impossible to overdose, but in space radiation sickness/poisoning are possibleheavy ion - tends to be shielded effectively by skin, but at high enough energies will cause radiation sickness/poisoning- The symptoms of radiation sickness/poisoning are nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, hair loss, etc. but in extremely high overdose it kills the nervous system causing very sudden death. The insidious thing about radiation sickness/poisoning is that just as the patient begins to appear to improve, the immune system fails and massive infections set in, which kill many.
Why disorder happen?
There are lots of reasons, it varies from person to person.
Why radiation is dangerous?
Radiation, which comes in a couple of harmful forms, can be either electromagnetic or particulate. The dangerous electromagnetic radiation includes X-rays and the more potent gamma rays. Particulate radiation takes a number of forms which include alpha, beta, proton and neutron radiation. All these forms of radiation are what are called ionizing radiation. The ability of this radiation to penetrate varies, but the energies carried by ionizing radiation can damage genetic material within cells. This can result in cellular damage, mutation or even the death of the cell. Biologic material is seriously threatened by these types of radiation, and exposure should be minimized if not completely eliminated.
How long is the morning sickness?
There is no definite period of time, it varies from person to person. Some don't suffer from it to any significant extent.
How does the atmosphere affect the earth's climate?
the atmosphere absorbs heat from solar radiation; which varies with latitude and seasons
When the phase of EM radiation varies based on voice or musical recordings it is called what?
Phase Shift Modulation
What country is using radiation?
Various countries use radiation in different ways, including for medical diagnosis and treatment, industrial applications, and research. The extent to which radiation is utilized varies from country to country based on their specific needs and regulations.
Does a blackbody emit all its radiation at a single frequency?
No, a blackbody emits radiation over a range of frequencies, not just a single frequency. The distribution of radiation emitted by a blackbody is described by Planck's law, which shows that the intensity of radiation varies with different wavelengths.
How far into the pregnancy does morning sickness begin?
It can vary from about 3 weeks to about 6 weeks.It varies from woman to woman... When I was pregnant with my girls, I have 2, I had morning sickness from 4 weeks up to month 5, straight. With my boys, no morning sickness at all.
Is it easy or difficult to identify when prejudice is occurring?
Whether or not prejudice is difficult or easy to identify when it is occurring varies from case to case. In some instances it is so blatant, that anyone can easily identify it. In other cases, it is more subtle and it may take longer to identify.
