Alpha radiation has the least ability to penetrate matter. It consists of particles that are relatively large and heavy, which makes them easier to block. They can be stopped by a piece of paper or human skin.
Ionizing radiation, such as alpha and beta particles, gamma rays, and X-rays, causes the most ionization. These types of radiation have enough energy to remove electrons from atoms, creating ions in the process.
There are three types of radiation: Alpha, Beta, and Gamma. Alpha radiation is the emission of Alpha particles, which consists of two protons bound to two neutrons. Beta radiation is the emissions of electrons, and gamma radiation is the emission of photons. Alpha particles are made up of 2 protons and 2 neutrons, and can be blocked by a single sheet of paper. Beta particles are electrons and can be stopped by a 3/4 inch block of wood. Gamma particles are photons, and they go straight through the 3/4 inch wood, but lead can stop them more. In total, gamma radiation has the greatest penetrating power.
Gamma rays are ionizing radiation, meaning they have enough energy to remove electrons from atoms, which can create charged particles (ions) as they pass through matter. This ionization process can damage biological cells and DNA, making gamma rays a health hazard.
Gamma rays, alpha particles, and beta particles are all forms of ionizing radiation because they have enough energy to remove electrons from atoms or molecules, creating ions. This ionization process can lead to cell damage and DNA mutations, making these types of radiation hazardous to living organisms.

Ionising radiation from Alpha, Beta and Gamma emissions (from radioactive materials) are harmful to most organs of the body.
