Answer» CORRECT choice is (a) Lymphocytes, Spermatogonia, Erythroblasts, Intestinal crypt cells To elaborate: ACCORDING to the researches done, the more mature a cell, higher is its RESISTANCE to the radiations. Thus, Lymphocytes, Spermatogonia, Erythroblasts, Intestinal crypt cells, which are all fast dividing cells with a SMALLER life TIME, they are highly sensitive to radiation, i.e. they have low resistance to radiation. |
