Answer:

The correct answer is that X-rays are dangerous mutagens.

Explanation:

X-rays refers to the rays, which are used for examining dental and bone scans. These are the compelling mutagens, which signifies that they can result in mutations in the genomes of the organism getting exposed to the rays directly. X-rays are electromagnetic radiations, and mutagens refer to any agent, which can produce serious modifications in DNA.  

Thus, protection is needed at the time of getting exposed to the X-rays, due to which a protective vest is recommended in the given case.

What moves lymph through the lymphatic system?
solong [7]
