If you're exposed to significant radiation, your thyroid will absorb radioactive iodine (radioiodine) just as it would other forms of iodine. The radioiodine is eventually cleared from the body in urine. If you take potassium iodide, it may fill "vacancies" in the thyroid and prevent the absorption of radioiodine.

Her doctor will say not to worry about it since a short amount of x-ray radiation is not dangerous at all.

The ovarian cycle describes the monthly events of a post-pubescent ovary that causes a small number of primary follicles to grow
Damm [24]

Answer:

The ovarian cycle regulates endocrine tissue preparation, and egg release in female body.  

The first half of the ovarian cycle as the follicular process. Slowly growing rates of FSH and LH are causing follicle development on the ovary surface. This cycle makes the egg primed for ovulation. As the follicles develop they start releasing estrogens and low progesterone levels. Progesterone locks the endometrium in order to help ensure pregnancy. It takes about seven days to travel ovum through the Fallopian tube and to get implanted in uterus. There are 30-60 cells at this point of evolution, called the morula. If there is no pregnancy implantation the lining would be sloughed off. estrogen levels increase after around 5 days, and the menstrual cycle enters the proliferative process. The endometrium starts to regrow, replacing the weakening blood vessels and glands at the end of the last cycle.

When evacuating victims and endangered personnel in a severe emergency in relation to the support zone where should routes be di
Lorico [155]
When evacuating victims and personnel currently facing danger to their lives, an establishment should have a safe evacuation routes. The evacuation route should be placed in the Exclusion Zone which means that it is a large site with obstructions and not safe until the safety area is reached. Another would be developing the Contamination Reduction Zone which is designed for individuals that are facing chemical dangers. Decontamination while inside the building is inadvised but would be applied in the arrival to the said zone. An access to potential routes should be available. Obstructions like locks, blocked doors are inadvisable. Routes should be free from items that are not needed within the area. Also, multiple routes that are separated from each other is recommended for evacuating numerous amount of people at the same time or when fire blocks one, there would be another choice available.

a 24 kg rock containing 3,528 j of potential energy rests upon the edge of a cliff how tall is the cliff
GenaCL600 [577]
Potential gravitational energy is computed with the formula:

PEgrav=mgh

Where:
PEgrav = Potential gravitation energy (J)
m = mass (kg)
h = height (m)
g = acceleration due to gravity (9.8m/s^2) 

Take note that acceleration due to gravity is a constant. 

All you need to do is put in what you know and solve for what you don't know. So your given is the following:
PEgrav = 3,528J
m = 24 kg
g = 9.8 m/s^2
Put that into your formula:
PEgrav=mgh
3,528J = (24kg)(9.8m/s^{2})(h)
3,528J = (235.2kg.m/s^{2})(h)
\frac{3,528J}{235.2kg.m/s^{2}} = h
15m=h

The height of the cliff is 15m.
