Deterministic effects from radiation have a threshold dose.

True
False
Depends on the context
Cannot be determined

The correct answer is: True

Deterministic effects from radiation are also known as non-stochastic effects, which means that these effects have a clear threshold dose below which they do not occur. Once the threshold dose is exceeded, these effects become more severe as the dose increases. Therefore, the statement that deterministic effects from radiation have a threshold dose is true. Option B is incorrect because deterministic effects do have a threshold dose. Option C is incorrect as the presence of a threshold dose for deterministic effects is a well-established scientific concept. Option D is also incorrect as it is possible to determine the threshold dose for deterministic effects from radiation.
