Which of these phrases is correlated with sieverts? check all that apply. one disintegration per second one joule of energy per kilogram of matter number of disintegrations of radioactive atoms over a period of time radiation dose absorbed by any material radiation dose absorbed by biological tissue measurement of emitted radiation measurement of radiation dose measurement of biological risk

The correct answers are

-one joule of energy per kilogram of matter

-radiation dose absorbed by biological tissue

-measurement of biological risk

Explanation:

The correct answers are "one joule of energy per kilogram of matter", "radiation dose absorbed by biological tissue" and "measurement of biological risk".

Explanation:

A sievert is a standardized unit used to study the biological effect that ionizing radiation have on an organism. It is defined as one joule of energy per kilogram of matter, where the matter in question belongs to a biological tissue. The sieverts are used to estimate the health effects that radiation exposure have in living beings. Therefore, they are a measurement of biological risk. It is estimated that a single exposure of about five sieverts would kill half of the persons exposed within a month.
