Committed dose

a. Amount of radiation administered at a mental health clinic.
b. A dose that chooses to remain faithful to only one other.
c. The dose of radiation considered over the entire time that the radioactive substance remains in the body (up to fifty years). When a radioactive material is inhaled it is eliminated gradually from the body and thus the dose is received over a certain period of time. The dose is therefore related to the processes by which the body eliminates the substance and also to the substance's own radioactive decay while it is in the body. The committed dose depends on the kind of radionuclide taken into the body, solubility of the chemical form that is incorporated, the particle size, and the route of incorporation into the body (inhalation, ingestion, through wounds, or absorption through the skin).

a. Opposite of nice lung dose.
b. A deliberate exposure of one's respiratory tract to ionizing radiation.
c. Average lung dose, calculated by adding the values of n number of individual lung doses, then dividing that sum by n.

a. Being able to sell one's assets very quickly.
b. The ability to tan easily, derived from the Latin word for sun (sol).
c. The mass of a substance (called "solute") that is evenly dispersed in a medium (solvent) without the mixture (solution) becoming saturated. The more soluble a solute, the larger the mass a given amount of solvent will be able to hold without the solute precipitating out of the solution. The most common solvent is water, but organic liquids, such as carbon tetrachloride and trichloroethylene, are commonly used as solvents in metal-working and other processes.

a. Slang for a computer disk infected with a virus.
b. A family board game involving play money, fake property deeds, and little plastic hotels.

a. An activity in which a person would choose to engage despite its potential harm.
b. A euphemism for the act of voting for the best of three political candidates even though it may contribute to the victory of the worst.
c. A situation in which: (1) the risk of an immediate fatality to an average individual in the vicinity of a nuclear power plant that might result from reactor accidents should not exceed 0.1% of the sum of the immediate fatality risks that result from other accidents to which the US population is generally exposed, and (2) the risk of cancer fatalities to the population near a nuclear power plant should not exceed 0.1% of the sum of cancer fatality risks from all other causes.
