Radiation (ionizing and non-ionizing)
X-rays, ultraviolet rays, visible rays, infrared rays, microwaves, radio waves and magnetic fields are part of the electromagnetic spectrum. Electromagnetic parts are defined by their frequency and wavelength. Because ultraviolet and X-rays are at very high frequencies, the electromagnetic particles have the energy to break chemical bonds. The breaking of these bonds is defined as ionization. Their ionizable electromagnetic radiation carries enough energy to break down DNA, the genetic material of the cell. Damage to DNA kills cells. As a result, the tissue is damaged. Even slight damage to DNA causes permanent changes that can lead to cancer. In mining deposits, natural water resources and soil; Radioactive substances, either as a result of human activities or naturally occurring, enter the food chain (plants) and pass from there to animals and humans, causing various diseases that result in death. Radioactive pollutants disrupt the environment and ecological balance by negatively affecting human, animal and plant health. In addition, radiation causes genetic changes in living things. Effect of radiation; It varies depending on gender, age and organ. Children and adolescents, especially the eye, are the most affected organ; It causes poor vision, cataracts and slowing of eye adaptation. Skin, on the other hand, is more resistant to radiation.
