General Information

Term

response to radiation

ID (Ontology)

GO:0009314 (Gene Ontology)

Definition

Any process that results in a change in state or activity of a cell or an organism (in terms of movement, secretion, enzyme production, gene expression, etc.) as a result of an electromagnetic radiation stimulus. Electromagnetic radiation is a propagating wave in space with electric and magnetic components. These components oscillate at right angles to each other and to the direction of propagation.

Also Known As

"response to electromagnetic radiation stimulus" ; "response to radiation stimulus"
