Why is prolonged exposure to radiation so dangerous?


come on you know this one, is so easy guys

Very simple. One of the things that can cause mutation in a normal cell is....you guessed it....radiation! So, the same thing used to treat cancer can also cause it. The longer the cells in your body are exposed to the radiation, the more likely they will be damaged.
