As ultraviolet rays are mutative i e they cause a cell to change its inherited status so they are most harmful next to the anihilation of the cell and organisms are bunches of cells
Most often cell mutation and cell death. UV radiation causes "frame shift" genetic mutations by creating "thiamine-dimers"
Yes, UV light is OK for snakesThough from what I can gather it is unnecessary for most captive snake species to have one.Please note MOST snake species not all, check with the seller if it is necessary for that species.
Black lights are not safe for babies. Their eye's are still developing, if babies are exposed to the UV black light they need protection for their eyes. Parents will not know the UV lights are dangerous until damage is already done and it can not be reversed. If in doubt it is best not to have your babies exposed to this light until they are older and their eye sight is not so vulnerable. Always, check with your pediatrician and have the doctor check the babies eyes if the baby has been exposed to the UV light.
In animals the main cause of photosensitivity is sunlight. In general "photosensitivity" can be defined as a reaction to any object that is receiving photons, which would include visible light and UV-light.
Not as such. But UV light can help epipelagic fish (surface-dwelling; the kind usually found in fish tanks) maintain their natural coloration.
I now that bumblebees are able to see ultraviolet rays. I am not sure about any other animals or insects. I am also looking for more answers.
the UV light kills single-celled organisms
the UV light kills single-celled organisms
Kills it
why are o\microorganism not eaqually sensitive to uv irradiation
The ozone depletion makes UV rays enter the earth. UV rays are fatal for living organisms.
Yes. Plant life is known to benefit from UV light. An example is people who grow their own marijuana indoors under UV lights.
area 4: more UV light reaches the earth causing damage to organisms <3
UV RAYS!!! The sun is the major natural source of UV Rays. UV Rays are invisable. They are still a form of light rays. UV stands for Ultra Violiet Rays. These (UV) rays cause sunburn and damage the eyes. Overexposure of UV Rays can cause serious skin cancer. UV Rays, however, can have useful effects, too. They can destroy harmful organisms.

Any light that contains or gives off UV rays. (Light bulbs don't work)
UV light affects the environment in a bad way. UV can cause skin cancer, cataract, suppress the immune system etc.
UV rays are absorbed by the ozone layer. It protects the earth from harmful UV radiations of the sun.
The UV light is different to that of fluorescent light. The UV originates from the sun. The latter one does not.No, it is not. UV is different.
