THE EFFECT OF RADIOACTIVE RADIATION ON THE HUMAN BODY
Abstract
This article analyzes the effect of radioactive radiation on the human body, their biological and biophysical mechanisms. The alpha, beta and gamma forms of radioactive radiation, as well as the properties of neutron radiation and the mechanisms of action in the body, are considered. The main attention is paid to the ionization processes occurring at the cellular level, structural changes and mutations in DNA and proteins, the development of cancer and hereditary changes. At the same time, the differences between the long-term effects of radiation in small doses and acute poisoning in large doses are highlighted. The article also highlights the importance of radiation protection measures, safety standards and modern biophysical research in protecting human health.
