Question

Birth defects due to radiation are a concern also. why is a fetus especially at risk?​

Answer 1

Of the babies that survive, however, few will have birth defects related to the exposure, regardless of how much radiation they were exposed to. Large radiation doses to the fetus during the more sensitive stages of development (between weeks 2 and 18 of pregnancy) can cause birth defects, especially to the brain.

HOPE THAT HELPED :)

MARK ME BRAINLIEST PLEASE

Answer 2

A fetus is especially at risk because they are under developed and easily susceptible to sicknesses or radiation
