 RADIATION

 It is the emission or transmitting of energy in the form of waves or particles through space or through a
material medium

CATEGORY OF RADIATION

IONIZING NON-IONIZING

 Exposure to ionizing radiation causes  Its main effect when interacting a tissue is
damage to living tissue. only heat.

 Ultraviolet
 X-Ray  Visible Light
 Gamma  Infrared
 Microwave
 Radio Waves
 CELL PHONE RADIATION IN IMAGES

When you initiate a mobile call, your cell transmits to the closest base
station (also called a cell tower). The base station then contacts the
switching station, which figures out and keeps track of, the caller’s number
and the receiver’s number. The switching station will then transmit the call
to the base station closest to the receiver. The base station then sends a
signal to the receiver of the call.
Most of the transmission signals are lost in space, as the signals are sent out
360 degrees from the cell’s antenna.
Only a small percentage hit the tower.
