  1. Daughter elements or radon cling to airborne dust particles forming a health hazard when the particles are inhaled.

    The kind of damage a radon daughter inflicts depends on its half-life. Shirt-lived radon daughters break down rapidly - and so soon after being inhaled - that the alpha particles they give off are absorbed by the lining of the lungs.


  2. It is radioactive

    so when it undergoes fission, it will split to form two "daughter" nuclei, energy and 2 or 3 additional neutrons

    :)
