EFFECTS OF EFFECTS OF EM EM RADIATION RADIATION ON ON LIVING THINGS LIVING THINGS AND AND THE THE ENVIRONMENT ENVIRONMENT GUESS THE GUESS THE PICTURE PICTURE IONIZING RADIATION it can remove electrons from the atoms. High doses of ionizing radiation can lead to various effects, such as skin burns, hair loss, birth defects, illness, cancer and death. Ultraviolet Waves It damage DNA in living organisms. Prolonged UV exposure can harm the eyes and weaken immune responses. UV radiation comes naturally from the sun. Ultraviolet Waves It can damage skin cells, leading to sunburn, premature aging, and increasing the risk of skin cancer. Ultraviolet Waves X_Rays X-rays are commonly used in medical diagnostics. However, prolonged or excessive exposure can damage tissues and DNA, increasing the risk of cancer and causing burns in high doses. Gamma Rays Gamma rays are highly penetrating and can cause severe damage to living tissues by ionizing atoms in cells, which can lead to cell death, DNA mutations, cancer, and radiation sickness at high exposure levels. Radio Waves Radio waves are generally considered safe for humans in the amounts commonly encountered. High-intensity exposure can cause tissue heating, but typical environmental levels are not harmful. RADIO FREQUENCIES Microwaves Prolonged exposure to high-intensity microwaves can cause heating of tissues, which can lead to burns or heat-related injuries. However, common devices like microwave ovens are designed with shielding to protect users. Infared Waves IR radiation is mainly experienced as heat. Prolonged or excessive exposure can cause burns or thermal injuries, particularly in sensitive tissues like the eyes.it is commonly use in electronic applications. What do you think is the Benefits and Risks of electromagnetic spectrum How does exposure to high- frequency electromagnetic radiation impact human? THANK YOU FOR LISTENING and prepare for your quiz. It’s your time to review 1-7 IN ORDER GIVE THE SEVEN COLORS PRESENTED AT VISIBLE LIGHT? 8. IF ALL COLORS ARE PRESENTED AT ONE TIME WHAT IS THE ONE COLOR OF VISIBLE LIGHT? 9-11 GIVE THE ELECTRO MAGNETIC SPECTRUM UNDER IONIZING RADIATION? XRAY, GAMMARAY,ULTRAVIOLET, VISIBLE LIGHT, INFRARED,RADIOWAVE 12-14GIVE THE ELECTRO MAGNETIC SPECTRUM UNDER NON- IONIZING RADIATION? XRAY, GAMMARAY,ULTRAVIOLET, VISIBLE LIGHT, INFRARED,RADIOWAVE 15-17 GIVE THE THREE TIPS ON HOW TO REDUCE THE RISK IN ELECTRO MAGNETIC SPECTRUM 18.are generally considered safe for humans in the amounts commonly encountered. High- intensity exposure can cause tissue heating, but typical environmental levels are not harmful. 19.RADIOWAVE 20.MICROWAVE 21. XRAY 22-23.GAMMARAY 24.INFRARED 25-26. VISIBLE LIGHT 27-29. ULTRAVIOLET 30. IT REMOVEELECTRONS FROM ATOMS.USUALLY IT IS GIVE MOST HARMFUL EFFECT TO HUMAN.
