Distinguish deterministic effects from stochastic effects of radiation exposure.

• A. Deterministic effects have no threshold; stochastic have a threshold
• B. Stochastic effects have a threshold
• C. Deterministic effects have a threshold and increase with dose; stochastic have no threshold and increase probability with dose
• D. Both deterministic and stochastic effects scale linearly with dose without threshold

Answer: (C)
