    “Radiation therapy is one of the most common treatments for cancer” (American Cancer Society, 2017, para. 1). American Cancer Society (2017) notes that radiation therapy is often referred to as radiotherapy, irradiation, or x-ray therapy. This therapy can be given in three main ways know as external beam, internal, and systemic radiation. “Radiation uses high-energy particles, such as x-rays, gamma rays, electron beams, or protons” (National Cancer Institute, 2011, para. 6). “Radiation works by making small breaks in DNA inside cells. These breaks keep cancer cells from growing and dividing and often cause them to die” (American Cancer Society, 2017, para. 2). The radiation penetrates through the skin to the specific cancerous area. Acoording…

    There is a broad group of different types of cancers and they all have a wide range of causes. Each cancer is different according to its biology and pathophysiology. Cancer is a very broad topic but chose four topics that show that radiation is the main cause of cancer. Before I can prove radiation is the cause of cancer, there needs to be an introduction as to what cancer is and how it spreads. After showing what cancer is, the next thing to talk about is what did people think caused cancer before scientist and technology got a better grasp of the causes. My third topic is radiation and the different types and how they are big risks for getting cancer. My last topic is the treatment of cancer and how we developed the treatments.…

    There are many ways that the movie The Day the Earth Stood Still and the short story "There Will Come Soft Rains" are similar. "There Will Come Soft Rains" by Ray Bradbury is a science fiction story that deals with nuclear radiation and what the future world would be like if there was an atomic bomb. This short story is a good example of what could happen in the future. The Day the Earth Stood Still is a movie that also has the same genre, that it is science fiction. It helps people realize the horror of the use of nuclear weapons.…

    The word 'radiation' has to do with energy or matter moving through space. Space radiation affects astronauts when an amount of radiation gets through the walls of a space shuttle or station and enters the body. Solar radiation usually affects astronauts walking in space, outside of their space shuttles, but sometimes it can even affect the people on Earth, causing electricity failures. Many people - astronauts mostly- fear the consequences of solar radiation, due to the fact that solar radiation can cause dangerous effects to one's health. Even though sometimes the effects are so minor, you can barely tell that they are there.…
