Radiation can be classified as either ionising or non-ionising radiation. Ionising radiation is the radiation that causes biological damage. What is the attribute of the radiation that defines whether it is ionising or not?Group of answer choicesThe ability to remove electrons from atomsWhether the radiation is as a particle or a waveThe length of exposure to the radiationThe intensity of the radiation

Choose TRUE if the statement is correct, FALSE if otherwise. Ionization, is the process if a wave has enough energy, that it can remove the inner electrons from atoms. Radiation dose is measured in sieverts (Sv) or millisieverts (mSv). Ionizing waves have a severe effect on living tissue by killing cells or damaging DNA. Ultraviolet (UV) rays, X-rays, and Gamma rays are examples of non-ionizing waves. Radiographers take several X-rays each day and their potential dose is much lower. Some exposure to UV radiation is beneficial like skin uses UV radiation from the Sun to make vitamin D but overexposure is generally harmful. Sun Protection Factor (SPF) is a number used by sunscreen manufacturers to indicate how much longer youcan stay out in the sun before getting burnt. Microwaves are radio waves with long wavelengths that causes very slightly absorbed by the body and can cause a minor heating effect.
