Gamma radiation, X Rays
Gamma radiation is the most penetrating of the three radiations so it will penetrate the deepest into the human body. Alpha particles are usually stopped by the human skin but beta particles require some external protection to stop entering into the human body.
X rays and gamma rays can both penetrate through the human body.
gamma!!
X rays
Microwaves
No
X rays are of a much higher energy than visible light, so they have more penetrating power. So they can easily penetrate tissue, but they penetrate bones less well, and most metals almost not at all.
whereas most tissue are vascular (contain blood vessels), epithelium is avascular, meaning it lacks blood vessels. epithelial cells receive their nutrients from capillaries in the underlying connective tissue. although blood vessels do not penetrate epithelial sheets, nerve endings do; that is, epithelium is innervated (supply organ with nerve).
Carcinogens are most influenced by epithelial. They originate in epithelium because they begin on the surface. Observations suggest that carcinogens most commonly don't penetrate tissue very deeply.
Gamma radiation. Alpha radiation is the least penetrating, beta radiation penetrates and lasts longer than alpha but also "dies out" relatively quickly, but Gamma radiation will not only penetrate deep, but it will also stay long.

Gamma radiation, X Rays
It penetrates water very well and soft tissues to variable degrees. It does not penetrate bone.
yes. a rattlesnake only uses venom to kill, not inflecting deep damage
it will penetrate the epidermis (5 layers) and the dermis (2 layers) and then reach the hypodermis.
An X-ray.
Exposing tumors to ionizing radiation kills them faster than it kills nearby healthy tissue. If you can focus or otherwise concentrate the radiation on the tumor the effect is even stronger. The reason for this effect is tumors generally grow much faster than healthy tissue, and ionizing radiation damages growing tissue much more significantly than tissue that is not actively growing. This damage should kill it.
