Answer:

C. ultraviolet radiation.

Explanation:

Cell injury occurs when cells undergo specific changes when subjected to an internal factor or an external factor. Such change causes "illness" to the person.

Under<em> "toxic injury," </em>two sources may cause an injury to the cell. These are <em>endogenous and exogenous factors. </em>Endogenous factors originate within the body while the exogenous factors originate from the environment.

Among the choices above, it is only the<em> ultraviolet radiation</em> that is considered an exogenous factor because it originates from outside the person's body. <u>Prolonged exposure to UV light damages the cells</u> which can lead to <em>cancer</em>.
