Everything that happens in a cell depends upon chemical reactions; a cell is effectively a chemical machine. When radiation strikes a molecule, it usually has enough energy to alter that molecule, and the altered molecule will have different chemical properties than it originally had, and it will not carry out its normal role in the biochemistry of the cell, but may instead interfere with that biochemistry.
