What sub-syndrome is normally seen at lower range of radiation exposure?
Neurovascular Syndrome
What is radioactive material and why is it harmful?
Radiation poisoning, also called "radiation sickness" or a "creeping dose", is a form of damage to organ tissue due to excessive exposure to ionizing radiation. The term is generally used to refer to acute problems caused by a large dosage of radiation in a short period, though this also has occurred with long term exposure. The clinical name for "radiation sickness" is acute radiation syndrome (ARS) as described by the CDC. A chronic radiation syndrome does exist but is very uncommon; this has been observed among workers in early radium source production sites and in the early days of the Soviet nuclear program. A short exposure can result in acute radiation syndrome; chronic radiation syndrome requires a prolonged high level of exposure. The use of radionuclides in science and industry is strictly regulated in most countries (in the U.S. by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission). In the event of an accidental or deliberate release of radioactive material, either evacuation or sheltering in place will be the recommended measures. Radioactive waste comes from a number of sources. The majority of waste originates from the nuclear fuel cycle and nuclear weapons reprocessing. However, other sources include medical and industrial wastes, as well as naturally occurring radioactive materials (NORM) that can be concentrated as a result of the processing or consumption of coal, oil and gas, and some minerals.source: wikipedia
What is a chromosomal disorder that could result from nondisjunction?
Disorders, such as Down's Syndrome, are caused by nondisjunction.
Whst is the syndrome if a person has a karyotype with the chromosome XXY?
excellent prognosis. men with xyy syndrome (jacob's syndrome) live comfortably.
What is an example of a disorder associated with an error in the number of chromosomes present?
Down syndrome (trisomy 21) is a disorder associated with an error in the number of chromosomes present. Other examples of disorders associated with an error in the number of chromosomes are Trisomy 18 (Edwards Syndrome), Trisomy 13 (Patau Syndrome), Triple X syndrome, and Klinefelter Syndrome.
Acute Radiation Syndrome results from level external exposure to ionizing radiation. What sub-syndrome is normally seen at the lower range of exposure?
Neurovascular Syndrome
What sub-syndrome is normally seen at lower range of radiation exposure?
Neurovascular Syndrome
What were the effects of radiation exposure on humans in hiroshima?
The results are called acute radiation syndrome. These begin within a day of exposure. There will be GI tract problems, falling blood counts, neurological signs, even death. You are probably aware of radiation treatment for cancer and the loss of hair.
What is the medical term meaning the result of prolonged exposure to high levels of cortisol?
Cushing's Syndrome
Can exposure to black mold cause down syndrome in someone's offspring?
No.

What are the Phases of Acute Radiation Syndrome?
radiation poisoning, radiation sickness or radiation toxicity
How long before you die from Fukushima?
Well assuming that you spent your whole life in Fukushima you would have a mere 82.9 years to live. Radiation poisoning is different and depends greatly upon method of exposure, what kind of radiation, how much exposure, how quick it is treated and pre-existing conditions. Although if you spent an equal amount of time in a semi truck full of bananas and in the main city of Fukushima you would die from the bananas' natural radioactivity before radiation in the main city of Fukushima. BTW: Fukushima is a city, not a syndrome.
What is the order of the phases of acute radiation syndrome?
prodromal, latent, manifest
What is the correct order for the phases of Acute Radiation Syndrome?
Prodromal, latent, and manifest
What is the correct order for the phase acute radiation syndrome?

Latent phase of Acute Radiation Syndrome?
The latent phase of Acute Radiation Syndrome, also known as ARS, is wherein the patient looks and feels generally healthy. This lasts for a few hours or even up to a few weeks.
