the gamma and beta radiations which can cause cell mutation and radiation poisoning
Good. It is interesting Bad: Risk for exposure to radioactive materials
Radioactive substances are the things that put off radiation. These could be radioactive waste, or even radioactive materials not yet used.
Plutonium is very important for nuclear weapons and for nuclear fuels used in nuclear reactors. But plutonium is also toxic and radioactive. See the link below.
Radioactive fallout
No. All things are radioactive, including living things and even humans. All matter (save a few) emits gamma radiation spontaneously.
too much is very bad...it's used for cancer, which is safe, though.
It's not necessarily bad, just very radioactive and easily used to make bombs.
Polonium is extremely radioactive.
Yes some things that are radioactive are toxic. Being able to harm an exposed organism.
It depends what you want to use it for. They are extremely dangerous and can kill you if exposed to the wrong kind, but they are also how much of the world's electricity is produced. Radioactive isotopes are also commonly used in medicine for a number of beneficial purposes. Radioactive isotopes are also what nuclear bombs use. Like most things in the world, they can be used for great good, and terrible harm... it just depends on what you do with it.
When you do bad things, bad things will happen to you (you will get bad Karma)
The release of radioactive substances in the atmosphere leads to radioactive pollution. Only the radioactive wastes cause the radioactive pollution. Nuclear material is pure and they are not the factor for causing radioactive pollution. The waste discarded improperly only causes radioactive pollution.The following causes the radioactive pollution in high rangeNuclear power plantsCoal fired power plantsUranium plantsThe above said power plants release radioactive wastes to the atmosphere. During their release or transportation of radioactive wastes, the radioactive pollution occurs.
