WHAT DOES RADIORESISTANT MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Radioresistance

Radioresistance is the property of organisms that are capable of living in environments with very high levels of ionizing radiation. Radioresistance is surprisingly high in many organisms, in contrast to previously held views. For example, the study of environment, animals and plants around the Chernobyl disaster area has revealed an unexpected survival of many species, despite the high radiation levels. A Brazilian study in a hill in the state of Minas Gerais which has high natural radiation levels from uranium deposits, has also shown many radioresistant insects, worms and plants. Certain extremophiles, such as the bacteria Deinococcus radiodurans and the tardigrades can withstand acute doses of ionizing radiation on the order of 5,000 Gy.

Definition of radioresistant in the English dictionary
