What does high uv radiation do to the earth?
High UV radiation can cause skin cancer. It could also cause eye cataract.
What happens if you drink uranium?
Uranium is a heavy metal, as is lead, chromium, mercury, etc. As such, it is poisonous, but takes time to affect the body- usually kidneys, brain, and liver. It is also radioactive. Exposure to high levels of radiation can produce radiation sickness, cancer, and in very high levels, death.
What is radiation treatments?
Radiation treatment, or radiation therapy is a form of cancer treatment. It uses high doses of intense energy to kill the cancer cells.
Does nuclear energy cause cancer?
No. The types of radiation that cause cancer are ionizing radiation (alpha and beta radiation) and high-energy electromagnetic radiation (ultraviolet rays, x-rays, and gamma rays). Even then, very low doses of these forms of radiation usually aren't carcinogenic.
What are effects of high levels of Uv light?
Too much exposure can cause skin burns and skin cancer
Does high levels of radiation cause breast cancer?
YES
What does high uv radiation do to the earth?
High UV radiation can cause skin cancer. It could also cause eye cataract.
Can high levels of radiation cause ones liver to fail?
Yes radiation can cause liver failure.
Why should you worry about the high levels of exposure to ultraviolet radiation?
you should be worried about high levels of radiation because you can catch skin cancer if the atmosphere around the earth breaks
Identify THREE reasons a person may develope radiation sickness?
repeated exposures to both high-energy radiation and high levels of fallout exposure to high levels of fallout a single exposure to high-energy radiation
Three reasons a person may develop radiation sickness?
- exposure to high levels of fallout - single exposure to high energy radiation - repeated exposures to both high energy radiation and high levels of fallout

Radiation treatment, or radiation therapy is a form of cancer treatment. It uses high doses of intense energy to kill the cancer cells.
How many sieverts are dangerous?
Exposure to high levels of radiation, around 1 to 10 sieverts, can lead to severe radiation sickness, organ failure, and ultimately death. Long-term exposure to lower levels of radiation can also increase the risk of cancer. It is important to minimize exposure to radiation as much as possible to protect health.
