What is Biologic Effects of Radiation Explained about?

1) Radiobiology is the study of the effects of ionizing radiation on living systems at all levels of biological organization. 2) Radiation can directly damage biological molecules or indirectly damage them through free radicals produced by radiolysis of water. Two-thirds of biological damage results from indirect effects. 3) Radiation can damage DNA through breaks, cross-links, and base changes. Double-strand breaks are particularly important as they can lead to cell death, mutations, and cancer.
