What results in late stochastic effects at the human level? - correct answer
✔✔cellular transformation
What results in no response because of recovery and repair metabolic process? -
correct answer ✔✔cell death
Cell death is what kind of response? - correct answer ✔✔radiation
If molecules exist in over abundance, the noticeable injury is __ likely from
radiation damage because similar molecules would be available to continue to
support the cell. - correct answer ✔✔less
Some molecules, considered necessary for cell function are? (3) - correct answer
✔✔*not abundant
*one of its type
