Question

13. Injury factors important in radiation-caused damage include:

1. Energy of the particles
2. Number of particles, or activity
3. Region of the body subjected to the ionization event
4. All of the above

Answer 1

Answer- The correct option is d. (All of the above).

Explanation- Energy of the particles because energy of the different different particles like x-rays, gamma rays, or any other ionization radiation possess its own energy so the more energy particles have more tendency to damage and less energy particles have less tendency to damage. So the energy of particles is important factor.

Number of particles or activity is also important factor because the activity or number of particles are more damage will be more and if this is less damage will be less.

Region of the body subjected to the ionization event, this is also important factor because the part of the body subjected towards the radiation have more tendency or more chances to damage for example skin cancer may be caused due to this factor.
