Bone marrow cells divide rapidly and are susceptible to the effects of radiation.
Which of the following cell types are least sensitive to ionizing radiation damage?

What parts of the body to cells reproduce quickly besides skin?
so hair cells divide really fast too. That's why when treating cancer (rapidly dividing cells) you may lose your hair. Because the treatment like radiation or chemo kills all rapidly dividing cells
what cells types are least sensitive to ionizing radiation damage?
Cells that do not have a nucleus
Are cancer cells more sensitive to drugs and radiation than normal cells?
Yes, cancer cells are generally more sensitive to drugs and radiation than normal cells. This is because cancer cells have abnormal and uncontrolled growth, and their DNA repair mechanisms may be impaired. Therefore, therapies like chemotherapy and radiation therapy can target the rapidly dividing cancer cells and effectively kill them while minimizing damage to healthy cells.
Why are cancer cells more sensitive to radiation than nerve cells?
Because Prof.Kodjo thought so
What are some examples cells divide rapidly some not at all after maturity?

Why was if difficult to find interphase cells in the whitefish blastula slide?
This is because the cells divide so rapidly that Interphase is such a short period of time; thus, few cells are in Interphase.Read more: Why_was_if_difficult_to_find_interphase_cells_in_the_whitefish_blastula_slide
Do all cells types divide at the same rate?
No, cells undergoing meiosis take longer time than those undergoing mitosis
Are plasma cells specialized B cells?
