Ionizing radiation has the ability to harm proteins and change the sequence of DNA, causing mutations. This can have harmful effects for the cell
Normal cell functions of prokaryotes can be disrupted by various factors such as antibiotics, toxins, changes in pH or temperature, lack of essential nutrients, and exposure to radiation or chemicals. These disruptions can interfere with processes like protein synthesis, DNA replication, and cell division, leading to cell dysfunction or death.
The Sun is the primary source of radiation for both the Earth's atmosphere and the greenhouse effect. Solar radiation enters the atmosphere, warms the Earth's surface, and is re-radiated as infrared radiation. Greenhouse gases in the atmosphere trap some of this infrared radiation, leading to the greenhouse effect.
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.
The most common exposure to electromagnetic radiation is from the use of cell phones. It is a minor almost minute exposure. Why it can damage the cell structure of humans is because it is toxic it is simply because it is radiation.

damage to the cell's DNA, which can lead to mutations or cell death. This can disrupt normal cellular functions and may eventually contribute to the development of diseases such as cancer.
Xerox machines emit very low levels of radiation that are considered safe for normal office use. The risk of cell mutation from exposure to this level of radiation is minimal. However, prolonged or repeated exposure to high levels of radiation could potentially increase the risk of cell mutations.
Not really. You don't have anything to worry about carrying your cell phone in your pants pocket.
There can be a few effects of a dish on a cancer cell during growth. It can cause the cell to spread and become painful.
The ones with the shortest (normal) lifespans - like skin & the lining of the gut.
What effect did radiation have on the general appearance of the seedlings
Exposure to ionizing radiation can increase the risk of developing cancer, damage normal cells, and disrupt normal cell function. It can also cause genetic mutations, leading to potential health issues for future generations. Additionally, high doses of ionizing radiation can result in acute radiation sickness, which can be life-threatening.
Background radiation.
since kids usually use cell phones more than adults, and since they will have them longer, it is more likely.

We are all bombarded with Cosmic radiation all the time. Radiation is the oft overlooked key to the leaps and bounds made by evolution. Mutation allows massive changes in DNA to occur at much greater rates than natural selection alone. Radiation has certainly affected the course of our species along our path to sentience.
