Which consequence results when uranium ore contamination increases radon emanation?

💡 Explanation

Increased uranium-238 leads to higher radon gas production via alpha decay, and therefore results in increases in radiation-induced lung cancer, rather than affecting half-life because decay constant for U-238 remains unchanged.
