  1. Gamma radiation has very high Penetrating power because it is High-energy electromagnetic radiation

    Gamma decay tyrpe is a Excited nucleus releases a high-energy photon


  2. Gamma radiation is most penetrating, also does the least amount of damage due to small size, gamma radiation is just photons at very high energies, almost all of it would pass through your body without hitting anything. ie will pass through lead, beta will pass through your skin, alpha is stopped by a few cm of air
