Stars are classified based on the spectral type (i.e. a means to measure the photospheric temperature and density by getting information about the ionisation state).

Under the Morgan–Keenan (MK) system using the letters O, B, A, F, G, K, and M, a sequence from the hottest (O type) to the coolest (M type) (Harvard Spectral classification based on the surface temperature of the stars). A luminosity class is added to the spectral class using Roman numerals (Yerkes Spectral classification). This is based on the width of certain absorption lines in the star's spectrum (0 or Ia+ - hypergiants, I - supergiants, II - bright giants, III - regular giants, IV - sub-giants, V - main-sequence stars, sd - sub-dwarfs, and D - white dwarfs).

How do radiation and chemotherapy affect cancer cells?
elixir [45]

Answer:

They destroy the DNA or RNA

Explanation:

Cancer drugs work by damaging the RNA or DNA. The faster the cancer cells divide, the more likely it is that chemotherapy will kill the cells, causing the tumor to shrink. They also induce apoptosis. Radiation therapy is a cancer treatment that uses high doses of radiation to kill cancer cells and shrink tumors. The radiations also induce apoptosis. Cancer cells whose DNA is damaged beyond repair stops dividing and die. The damaged cells die, they are broken down and removed by the body.
