The human body is naturally radioactive. The potassium found in the bodies of humans is the main cause of the radioactivity.
Propofol is not a naturally occurring substance in the human body.
No, radium is very radioactive (emitting alpha, beta, AND gamma) and acts chemically as if it was calcium. This causes any radium that enters the body to become incorporated into the bones, where its intense radiation kills the cells that make bone (causing the bones to weaken and eventually crumble) and the blood producing cells in the marrow (causing anemia and weakening the immune system allowing severe infections to develop).
Yes, radioactive materials are naturally occurring and can be found in the air, water, soil, and even in our bodies. They can also be produced through human activities such as nuclear power generation and medical procedures.
All the isotopes of uranium are radioactive and unstable.
Radioactive materials released from a source can affect the human body via a number of pathways. Some may be transported by winds or water to our vicinity. These radioactive substances can affect us through direct irradiation and may be inhaled or ingested.
Yes.
No, neptunium is a radioactive element that is not naturally found in the human body and is not known to have any biological functions. Ingesting or being exposed to neptunium can be harmful to human health due to its radioactive nature.
Thorium is not used in the human body. While thorium is a naturally occurring element, it is not essential for human health and can be harmful if ingested or inhaled, as it is radioactive. It is primarily used in industrial and energy applications.
Propofol is not a naturally occurring substance in the human body.
No, the human body does not naturally produce nicotine.

Thorium has no biological role. Thorium is a heavy, radioactive metal which is not used in the human body.
Uranium is naturally radioactive.
No, radium is very radioactive (emitting alpha, beta, AND gamma) and acts chemically as if it was calcium. This causes any radium that enters the body to become incorporated into the bones, where its intense radiation kills the cells that make bone (causing the bones to weaken and eventually crumble) and the blood producing cells in the marrow (causing anemia and weakening the immune system allowing severe infections to develop).
No, the human body does not naturally produce THC. THC is a compound found in cannabis plants.
