Identify the problem:

Improper handling of radioactive substances can
cause harm to humans.

Clarification of the problem:

1. Radiation from radioactive substances can destroy
living cells
2. Stop vital organs in the body from working
properly
3. Cause cancer
4. Cause mutation
5. Cause abnormality to foetus
Note :Any one
Methods to solve the problem
1. Wear protective attire filled with lead
2. Wear film badge that can measure the degree of
exposure to radiation.
3. Use remote control equipment to move
radioactive substance
4. Have regular medical check-up to maintain good
health.
5. Radioactive substances need to be kept in
a thick lead box
6. Warning symbol of radioactive substance must be
displayed at places that store radioactive
resource.
