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>.

lisabon 2012 [21]
You don't. Astral projection is pseudo science, but if you believe those who claim that it is a real thing, then it involves things like meditation and what not and then you can leave your body and float around and see the world and meet other souls and things like that. It's not supported by any scientific evidence.
