activity (noun)	radiation (noun)
any specific behavior	the act of spreading outward from a central source
the trait of being active; moving or acting rapidly and energetically	(medicine) the treatment of disease (especially cancer) by exposure to a radioactive substance
an organic process that takes place in the body	a radial arrangement of nerve fibers connecting different parts of the brain
a process existing in or produced by nature (rather than by the intent of human beings)	the spread of a group of organisms into new habitats
the state of being active	energy that is radiated or transmitted in the form of rays or waves or particles
(chemistry) the capacity of a substance to take part in a chemical reaction	the spontaneous emission of a stream of particles or electromagnetic rays in nuclear decay
