Question

Most radiation exposure comes from

Answer 1

Most radiation exposure comes from natural sources. These so-called "natural sources" include Radon, Internal, Terrestrial, and Cosmic. Among that, Radon proves to be the largest source of radiation. Radon is a naturally occurring radioactive gas that comes from the breakdown of uranium.

Answer 2

Answer:

d. natural source

Explanation:

When energy is emitteds by a source and travels through a medium until it's absorbed by matter, radiation is occuring. We are exposed to radiation everyday, some sources of radiation are natural and other come from man-made elements. We are commonly exposed to Background radiation, from Earth itself (some minerals) and very few man-made objects. From this type of radiation comes the one we are the most exposed to emitted by Radon and Thoron (radioactive gases which are created when other naturally occurring elements undergo radioactive decay). This gases represent 37% of all the radiation we are commonly exposed to.
