UVC radiation is absorbed by the ozone layer in the Earth's atmosphere, preventing it from reaching the Earth's surface. If UVC radiation were to reach the surface, it can be harmful to living organisms as it can damage genetic material and cause skin cancer.
What happens when cells are exposed to nuclear radiation?
Exposure to nuclear radiation can damage cells by disrupting their DNA, leading to mutations and potential cell death. This damage can result in a variety of health effects, including increased risk of cancer, infertility, and radiation sickness. The severity of the impact depends on factors such as the dose of radiation received and the type of radiation.
