Explanation: When molten nuclear fuel melts through a nuclear power plant's barriers, it causes a serious radiation leak. The radioactive materials will seep out to the surrounding environment, and into the air. Once in the upper atmosphere, high winds and jet streams couldcarry the dust to all places, and dropping radiation on everything, causing radiation poisoning. Radiation can penetrate deep inside the human body, and into the cells. Certain body parts are more specifically affected by exposure to different types of radiation sources. |
