Plants do absorb some radiation from contamination by airborne radiation or from the soil after contaminated dust has settled on it. Marijuana would be similar if grown outside, however I believe some is grown in indoor warm rooms, this should be clear. Not a good idea to smoke something that is contaminated though, probably more harmful than eating some food with similar contamination, as that would pass through you fairly quickly whilst if absorbed into the lungs it could stay there some time (I am not medically qualified, just giving my thoughts)

Do cacti absorb radiation, and if so, how does it affect their growth and development?

Cacti do not absorb radiation in the same way that plants absorb sunlight for photosynthesis. Radiation exposure can harm cacti by causing mutations in their cells, which can lead to stunted growth or abnormal development.


Why is radiation being created?

Its being created because nuclear power plants are giving of to much radiation


Where is gamma radiation found at?

Gamma radiation is found in various natural sources such as the sun, rocks, and soil. It is also produced by nuclear reactions in nuclear power plants and in medical procedures like radiation therapy. Additionally, gamma radiation can result from nuclear weapons or accidents at nuclear facilities.

What are the properties and effectiveness of radiation shielding material in protecting against harmful radiation exposure?

Radiation shielding materials are substances that absorb or block harmful radiation, such as lead or concrete. The effectiveness of these materials in protecting against radiation exposure depends on factors like thickness and density. Thicker and denser materials provide better protection. Lead is commonly used for shielding due to its high density and ability to absorb radiation. Overall, radiation shielding materials are essential for reducing the risk of harmful radiation exposure in various settings, such as medical facilities and nuclear power plants.
