Radiation and chemotherapy can also kill normal, healthy cells.

Radiation treatment utilizes high-energy particles or surges, such as electron beams, or protons, x-rays, gamma rays, to destroy or damage cancer cells. It operates by preventing the cancer cells from multiplying and dividing to make more cells. Because cancer cells normally grow and distribute faster than normal cells, chemotherapy has a larger effect on cancer cells. However, the drugs used for chemotherapy are persuasive, and they can still generate injury to healthy cells.

According to the image below, which season is about to begin in the northern hemisphere?
vova2212 [387]

Answer:

winter

Explanation:

On this image, we can see the Earth being tilted away by 23.5 degrees from the Sun. This tilting puts the Northern Hemisphere in a situation where it is the one that is tilted away from the Sun, thus it will receive less sunlight, as well as less direct sunlight. That will cause lower temperatures on the Northern Hemisphere, thus the winter season will start, and it will last for around three months, at least at the mid-latitude zones. On the other side, the Southern Hemisphere is more exposed to the Sun during this tilting, so t receives more sunlight, and more direct sunlight, resulting in summer in this half of the planet.
