Ionizing radiation has the potential to produce biological damage

because x-rays can detach subatomic particles from larger molecules.
because they create an electrical imbalance within a normally stable cell.
because they contain heat, which burns the cell and causes it to die.
A and B only

A and B only

Rationale: A and B only – X-rays can detach from their larger parts, which creates an imbalance in a normally stable cell.
