Final answer:
True. Technologic advances and regulations imposed by the FDA have reduced the radiation exposure of the general public from consumer products containing radioactive material.
Step-by-step explanation:
True.
Since the 1970s, there have been technologic advances and strict regulations imposed within the United States by the FDA regarding consumer products containing radioactive material. These advances and regulations have significantly reduced the radiation exposure of the general public from such products. Examples of consumer products that used to contain radioactive material include some watches, clocks, and ceramics. However, due to regulations, these products are now either no longer available or are produced with less or no radioactive material.
