(Tarver‚ 2012) Exposure to UV radiation is the leading cause of most skin cancers as it induces DNA damage in skin cells. The effects of UV radiation can be classified based on the amount of exposure as acute or chronic. Acute side effects include sunburns and chronic effects can be mutagenic and also increase aging in humans. (Pacholczyk‚ 2015) The effects of UV radiation are significant

is a crucial component to acid rain (1). H2SO3 causes burns in all exposure routes‚ its target organs are the respiratory system if inhaled‚ eyes through direct contact‚ skin through direct contact and gastrointestinal system if ingested. However‚ there is no chronic health hazards with H2SO3 (2). If Sulfurous acid is inhaled medical attention should be sought out immediately‚ the individual should be removed from the exposure to a more ventilated area with fresh air. If breathing remains difficult

respiration or other substances needed for growth. After the leaves of the seed are exposed to light‚ photosynthesis provides the seed with food and the food stores are no longer needed. In this research‚ the relationship between Mung bean light exposure and germination will be investigated. In order for germination to take place certain external factors are needed. Water must be available for the seed to hydrate the dry tissues to activate the seed’s metabolism. Oxygen must also be available

“Solar Radiation and its Effects on Planet Earth” The Sun emits a tremendous amount of energy‚ in the form of electromagnetic radiation‚ into space. If we could somehow build a gigantic ball around the Sun that completely enclosed it‚ and lined that ball with perfectly efficient photovoltaic solar panels‚ we could capture all of that energy and convert it to electricity and be set in terms of Earth ’s energy needs for a very long time. Lacking such a fanciful sphere‚ most of the Sun ’s energy

We hypothesized that the amount of UV radiation exposed has a negative correlation with yeast genetic stability‚ which ultimately determines the number of yeast colonies. In this experiment‚ yeast cells were treated with UV radiation‚ protected by photoprotective agents with different strength (in ascending order: Sunscreen #2‚ #1‚ aluminium foil). After letting it grow for seven days at 37 degrees‚ some grown colonies were counted to determine the effectiveness of photoprotective agents. After comparing

A-6L September 27‚ 2012 ABSTRACT Corn seeds pre-exposed to 10‚ 30‚ and 50 kiloRads (kR) of radiation were grown in plots for almost 7 weeks. Four different setups – 10kR‚ 30kR‚ 50kR and the control‚ each with 10 corn seeds initially planted – were observed three times a week (during Mondays‚ Wednesdays and Fridays)‚ and the height of each growing corn was
