Explain the various stages and effects of acute radiation syndrome
There are four stages,
Effects: Symptoms are anorexia, nausea, and vomiting, Onset occurs 1 hour to 2 days after exposure, Stage lasts for minutes to days.
Effects: Stem cells in the bone marrow are dying, although the patient may appear and feel well. The stage lasts 1 to 6 weeks.
Effects: Symptoms are anorexia, fever, and malaise. Drop-in all blood cell counts occurs for several weeks. The primary cause of death is infection and hemorrhage. Survival decreases with increasing dose. Most deaths occur within a few months after exposure.
Effects: in most cases, bone marrow cells will begin to repopulate the marrow. There should be full recovery for a large percentage of individuals from a few weeks up to two years after exposure. death may occur in some individuals at 1.2 Gy (120 rads). the LD50/60† is about 2.5 to 5 Gy (250 to 500 rads).

Identify the various types of DNA repair mechanisms known to counteract the effects of UV radiation. Recombinational repair Excision repair Photoactivation repair SOS repair 1. is dependent on a photon-activated enzyme that cleaves thymine dimers. 2. is the process by which an endonuclease clips out UV- induced dimers, DNA polymerase III fills in the gap, and DNA ligase rejoins the phosphodiester backbone. 3. uses the corresponding region on the undamaged parental strand of the same polarity. 4. is a process...
