Why can cockroaches survive a nuclear explosion?

Cockroaches would out-survive humans when being exposed to increased levels of radiation. However, most other insects can out-survive cockroaches, and some microbes can out-survive insects. A reason most insects can endure high levels of radiation is that their cells divide less frequently. Radiation interferes with the way cells divide. Every division multiplies the damage caused by radiation. If a cell divides less frequently, accumulation of damage will occur with less speed. Insects are thus less affected by radiation.
