"Chromosome 16 is susceptible to re-organization because it is susceptible to ionizing radiation and perhaps to other genotoxins." What's wrong if I say "C16 is susceptible to ionizing radiation and perhaps to other toxins *because* it is susceptible to reorganization"?<br /><br />I don't know for sure how to answer this question and I don't know what hinges on it (besides the obvious semantics). I plan on sharing the post with a geneticist friend for his input.

"Chromosome 16 is susceptible to re-organization because it is susceptible to ionizing radiation and perhaps to other genotoxins." What's wrong if I say "C16 is susceptible to ionizing radiation and perhaps to other toxins *because* it is susceptible to reorganization"? Either way, we all know that radiation is very harmful to living tissues and we should avoid contact with it as far as possible. We know that this has been understood for a long time because of the great efforts, in particular by the US, to cover up some of the effects of the Hiroshima and Nagasaki bombs, as you mentioned in your article "Hell on Earth".
