15. 15 BASE DAMAGE LOSS OR CHANGE OF A BASE ON DNA RESULTS IN ALTERATION OF THE BASE SEQUENCE. SEQUENCE OF THE BASE STORES GENETIC INFO- SERIOUS CONSEQUENCE TO THE CELL CLASSIFIED AS:MUTATION

16. 16 Radiation induced mutagenesis Guanine

17. 17 SINGLE STRAND BRAKES RELATIVELY INCONSEQUENTIAL IN TERMS OF CELL KILLING. WILL BE EFFICIENTLY REPAIRED, WITH LITTLE, IF ANY, LONG TERM CONSEQUENCES TO THE CELL

18. 18 DOUBLE STRAND BRAKES VERY DIFFICULT FOR THE CELL TO BE REPAIRED. CAN LEAD TO CELL KILLING. IF REPAIR DOESN’T TAKE PLACE, THE DNA CHAINS CAN SEPARATE. SERIOUS CONSEQUENCE TO CELL LIFE.
