A number of problems may arise due to long exposure to ultraviolet radiations. Some of them are eye cataract and skin cancer.


Do radiation systoms can result from a single exposure and are contagious?

Radiation symptoms, such as acute radiation syndrome (ARS), can result from a single high-dose exposure to ionizing radiation, affecting the body’s cells and tissues. However, these symptoms are not contagious; they do not spread from person to person like an infectious disease. Instead, they are a direct consequence of the exposure and its effects on biological systems. Contagion can only occur with biological agents, not with radiation exposure.


What Exposure to high energy electromagnetic radiation such as waves can cause cancer sterility and death.?

Exposure to high energy electromagnetic radiation, such as ultraviolet, X-rays, and gamma rays, can damage the DNA in our cells. This damage can lead to mutations that may result in cancer, affect reproductive cells causing sterility, or cause acute effects such as radiation sickness or death. Protection measures and safe practices are crucial when dealing with high energy radiation to minimize these risks.

What do cells damaged by ultraviolet radiation result in?

It is suspected that this damage induces mutations that result in the development of malignant melanoma.


Why does ultraviolet radiation from the sun and its role in causing sunburns?

Ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun is a type of electromagnetic radiation that can damage the skin's DNA. When skin is exposed to UV rays, particularly UVB rays, it triggers an inflammatory response, leading to sunburn. This damage can result in redness, pain, and peeling of the skin as the body attempts to heal. Prolonged exposure to UV radiation also increases the risk of skin cancer over time.
