Answer:

Gamma rays

Explanation:

Gamma rays are usually defined as a type of electromagnetic radiations, that are characterized by the presence of shorter wavelength and higher energy. These are the common radiations that are released from the radioactive substances, where an unstable nucleus of an atom releases an excess amount of energy by undergoing continuous electromagnetic processes.

These are harmful to humans and other organisms, as they are comprised of very high energy and they can easily penetrate through the bodies of humans and other organisms.

These gamma particles are emitted in the power plants, where the people working in it wear a special type of device that helps them in monitoring the exposure to radiation.

Why polarization does not occur in dry cell?​
Arisa [49]

Answer:

Manganese oxide prevents polarisation in dry cells. - Polarization is a defect that occurs in simple electric cells due to the accumulation of hydrogen gas around the positive electrode. ... - MnO2 reacts with H2 and forms water as byproduct, so depolarization doesn't occur.

What is cardiovascular eficiencia
Minchanka [31]
English: Cardiovascular efficiency depends on a number of factors. One measure is called stroke volume, which is the volume of blood pumped per heartbeat. A fit individual has a larger stroke volume, which means a greater volume of oxygen is delivered to the body per heartbeat.

Spanish: La eficacia cardiovascular depende de una serie de factores. Una medida se denomina volumen sistólico, que es el volumen de sangre bombeada por latidos cardíacos. Un individuo en forma tiene un volumen de movimiento mayor, lo que significa que un mayor volumen de oxígeno es entregado al cuerpo por latidos cardíacos.
