The reader is reminded that the chromosome shapes and numbers are purely diagrammatic. ionization is necessary in this critical volume. In contrast, the changes induced by uv photons in the spindle were not direct effects; they could be induced by irradiation of any part of the cytoplasm. Thus, both direct and indirect effects are important. There are several exceptions to the rule that rapidly dividing cells are more sensitive to ionizing radiations than are other cells. Some types of rapidly growing tumors are quite insensitive, whereas lymphocytes which divide only occasionally are among the most sensitive. The reasons for these differences are not known. In all cases tested, a decrease of oxygen tends to decrease the effect of the ionizing radiation. Furthermore, certain substances such as the.
