Abstract
The carcinogenic effects of solar activity with different intensities on embryos were studied epidemiologically. The study reveals that rece iving a moderate amount of low level cosmic radiation at embryonic sta ge may reduce cancer occurrence later. This paper analyses and discuss es the mechanisms of this hormetic effect.
