“…Radon gas could also penetrate the bloodstream from the lungs and irradiate the whole human body through an internal gaseous exchange, leading to a permanent source of internal radiation exposure (Ogundele et al, 2021;Ononugbo et al, 2016;Özdiş et al 2017). The translocation and uptake of natural radionuclides in crops obtained from farmlands are dependent on the farmland-soil composition; arising from agricultural practices (such as deposition of mineral resources like fertilizers in the subsurface layers of soil), atmosphere deposition, plant soil characteristics, and other environmental contamination (Olatunji et al, 2022;Gbenu et al, 2016). Accidental or incidental exposure to ionizing radiations over a short period (acute exposure) or a long period (chronic exposure) can result in skin burns, cell damage, cancer, cardiovascular disease, and even death.…”
