The Biological Effects of Radiation Whether the source of radiation is natural or man made‚ whether it is a small dose of radiation or a large dose‚ there will be some biological effects. Radiation causes ionizations of atoms‚ which will affect molecules‚ which may affect cells‚ which may affect tissues‚ and so on. Although most people tend to think of biological effects in terms of the effect of radiation on living cells‚ in actuality‚ ionizing radiation‚ by definition‚ interacts only with

What do cancer‚ radiation‚ and technology have in common? The links between the three are quite extraordinary. Cancer is a disease that accounts for 13% of all deaths in the world (Delfino and Day 1). The disease has an impact on patients‚ friends and their love ones. According to WebMD‚ radiation is energy that travels in the form of waves through radiation therapy. Through radiation therapy‚ radiation is used to stop‚ slow or cure the growth of cancer. With technology‚ radiologists can treat

Medical Center will provide me with the comprehensive training necessary to fulfill my aspirations. I am particularly fascinated in the field of radiation oncology. Watching as the physicians at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSKCC) cared for and interacted with their patients and‚ subsequently‚ investigated novel methods to optimize radiation therapy solidified my interest in this specialty. I am also interested in research

wrong type of cell for that area of the body. This is what we call a tumor. If this tumor begins to spread to other areas of the body it’s diagnosed as cancerous. Many studies have been performed to try to prove that cell phone electromagnetic radiation‚ in the form of radiofrequency‚ can indeed damage DNA. In the document “Cell Phones and Cancer Risk‚” from the National Cancer Institute‚ it states that: “The results of these studies have generally not provided clear evidence of a relationship

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

Counter Radiation and the Greenhouse Effect As well as being warmed by shortwave radiation from the Sun‚ the Earth’s surface is significantly heated by the long wave radiation emitted by the atmosphere and absorbed by the ground. Let’s look at this in more detail. The energy flows between the surface‚ atmosphere‚ and space. Some of this radiation is reflected back to space‚ but much is absorbed‚ warming the surface. Meanwhile‚ the Earth’s surface emits long-wave radiation upwards. Some of
