How does radiation harm the human body?

Radiation is both mysterious and frightening to the average person. While it is true that radiation is frightening, the fact is that it is very simple from a microscopic point of view, and it is the simple principle of action that leads to its being largely free of side effects.

First of all, radiation produces various functions of electromagnetic waves,digital nitrate tester also known as invisible light, mainly penetrating x-rays and gamma rays. If the radiation is intense, the skin only turns red after exposure. This is because a large number of gamma rays first irradiate the stratum corneum of the skin, absorbing the energy of the rays to produce heat, i.e., the kinetic energy of the molecules causes the stratum corneum to disintegrate from its structure, and the cells under the skin are exposed to a reddish appearance. It's actually the same thing as if you were to run outdoors all day in the hot sun; the intense UV rays also cause the skin to redden. It's just that gamma rays make this process happen instantly and continue to act on the deeper cells.

However, there are also many of our rays in radiation that have mass, such as alpha rays, beta rays, neutron streams, and other high-energy particle streams. Since the material culture of society is made up of atoms, and since the nucleus of an atom that really has a blocking effect is only one ten-thousandth of the volume of the atom,radiation detectors it is possible to pass between these particles, which are smaller than the average nucleus of an atom, by passing through with ease, and not only do these particles develop inside the tissues of the human body. Since no these particles have mass, so they need to be carried out to have a certain kinetic energy, so only such radiation will ionize most of the intellectual companies in the human body, in fact, they are the molecules such as DNARNA proteins bumped to pieces.

The same is true of the so-called gamma-ray X-rays, which produce ionization,geiger counter handheld in which the energy of the rays is absorbed by the atoms in the molecule, which then release their kinetic energy in a high-energy state so that the molecule splits. Indeed, damage to the stratum corneum or proteins can be recovered gradually, but the destruction of DNA, which carries genetic information, is terrible.

All the structures and life activities of the human body are guided by the genetic information carried on the DNA. It turns out that a person's cells, with the exception of nerve cells, are replaced every seven years. This is where stem cells continue to replace senescent cells through DNA-guided differentiation into cells with different functions. But when the DNA is damaged, these stem cells not only fail to differentiate as planned, but are more likely to resist the body's constraints and unleash their reproductive power, a natural phenomenon of unlimited proliferation also known as cancer. Existing cells may also be unable to perform specific functions due to DNA damage, and in relatively severe cases, internal organs may soon ulcerate, skin may fall off, and all vital activities of the body may be disorganized, with the time of death varying depending on the degree and intensity of radiation exposure.
