Which statement best describes the effect of beta particles on body tissue?

a.) they cause more damage than gamma rays but less than alpha particles.
b.) they cause more damage than alpha rays and gamma rays combined.
c.) they cause more damage than alpha particles but less than gamma rays.

Option C

Explanation:

Beta particles have more penetrating power as compared to that of alpha particles. This is so because the size of alpha particles are larger that beta particles.

The smaller beta particles penetrates more in the skin and it can even pass through the skin, absorbed by a few centimeter of body tissue or few millimeter of aluminium.

But gamma radiation is more penetrating out of alpha, beta and gamma. Hence, the correct answer is option C
