Information Paradox: An Introduction”). The Quantum theory is very important because it is believed to be the law of nature so‚ something opposing the law of nature is a huge deal. The information paradox breaks both the rules for one it states that the radiation that black holes emit is copied from what enters the black holes. It is also breaking the rule that information is never truly lost because in the theory of information paradoxes it states that‚ “The information permanently disappears‚” (“Black Hole

the rays aren’t accurate and continue moving through the body until they exit‚ some of them are absorbed into surrounding healthy tissue. The most common areas of the body that are damaged by this type of radiation therapy is the bladder and other surrounding organs (Proton Therapy). Radiation itself is a known cause of cancer and this risk may outweigh the benefits for some when selecting a treatment option. Aside from potentially damaging normal functioning tissue‚ X-ray therapy causes minimal

The surgery is followed up with RAI to completely eliminate metastasized thyroid cancer cells that remain within the patient’s body. External beam radiation is also used to treat or prevent the growth of follicular and Hurthle cell cancers in the neck area.

Prostate Cancer The prostate is a walnut-sized gland that is involved in the production of semen. It is located below a man’s bladder‚ in front of the rectum. Prostate cancer is the abnormal growth of cells in the prostate gland. CAUSES The exact cause of this condition is not known. RISK FACTORS This condition is more likely to develop in: People who are older than 65 years old. African Americans. People who are obese. People with a family history of prostate cancer.

they are invisible or silent to humans without man-made devices. One small change in a wave can make a world of difference in its entire energy outcome. Waves are very interesting items that effect our lives both positively and negatively. UV. Radiation in sunlight is divided up into three separate parts which are based on wavelengths‚ or more commonly read as energy. These parts are UV-A ‚ UV-B.‚ and UV-C.. UV-A. is 320-400 nanometers. In general shorter wavelengths are more harmful to living organisms
