About Radiation: Radiation is an energy that is transmitted in the form of waves or tiny particles. These are electromagnetic waves‚ which are classified as ’ionizing radiation’ and ’non ionizing radiation’. Electromagnetic radiation is when an object gives out electromagnetic radiation. For example when you on a torch light‚ the light is an example of radiation. Ionising radiation has more energy than non ionising radiation. Therefore it is enough to cause chemical changes by breaking chemical

Effects of Computer Radiation in the Health of I-BSN-2 Students of Cavite State University I. Introduction Nowadays‚ computers are very common in a household. Computers are very advantageous which actually has unlimited capabilities; in seeking a certain information‚ for recreation‚ for entertainment purposes and many other uses. But despite those infinite uses of computers‚ some say that computers cause detrimental effects to those who are exposed to its radiation. Radiation‚ in

Cosmic Microwave Background Radiation The Big Bang theory predicts that the early universe was a very hot place and that as it expands‚ the gas within it cools. Thus the universe should be filled with radiation that is literally the remnant heat left over from the Big Bang‚ called the “cosmic microwave background radiation”‚ or CMB. The CMB is an almost-uniform background of radio waves that fill the universe. The CMB is‚ in effect‚ the leftover heat of the Big Bang itself - it was released when

The Pro and Cons of Chemo and Radiation TRENEICE L. ANDERSON Pros of Chemo In early-stages cancer‚ surgery is performed with the intention of curing the disease. This is often followed by chemotherapy to reduce the risks of recurrence. In case of advanced-stage cancer‚ the aim of treatment is to control the cancer by controlling the symptoms. This enhances survival and ensures a better quality of life. THE EFFORT OF AWARENESS OF BREAST CANCER IS TO PUSH MORE WOMEN AND LOVE ONES TO TALK

Uses of Radiation in the Medical Industry Although scientists have only known about radiation since the 1890s‚ they have developed a wide variety of uses for this natural force. Today‚ to benefit humankind‚ radiation is used in medicine‚ academics‚ and industry‚ as well as for generating electricity. In addition‚ radiation has uses in such areas as agriculture‚ space exploration‚ law enforcement‚ geology and many others. However‚ in the medical industry‚ radiation is used for x-rays‚ therapeutic

5 When Radiation Therapy Kills 1. What concept in this chapter are illustrated in this case? What ethical issues are raised by radiation technology? There are three basic concept that can be apply in ethics in an information society. The concept that illustrated in this case is accountability. Accountability can be define as the responsibility to someone or for some activity. In this case hospital need to find the mechanism to identify the responsible parties for the radiation therapy

if UV Radiation induced a mutation in the DNA of Serratia Marcescens and prevented the production of the red pigment called Prodigiosin. Hypothesis: Maybe the disappearance of red color in Serratia Marcescens is caused by the UV light which induces mutations in its DNA and is known as a common mutagen. Prediction: If UV light mutates the DNA of Serratia Marcescens then the red pigment colonies of the bacteria will no longer be produced. Independent Variable: Ultra Violet Radiation Dependent
