Q. Physical carcinogens, e.g. UV-ray, X-ray and y-rays cause

Human Health and Disease

Solution:

Physical carcinogens include a wide range of agents, e.g. ionising radiations like X-rays and y-rays and non-ionising radiations like UV rays. These cause DNA damage leading to neoplastic transformation.
