Based on the object that shows the effects:

Somatic Effects: 
	These are biological effects that occur on the exposed individuals. Somatic effects can be of 2 types.
	
Prompt somatic effect occur after an acute dose.
		Eg: Temporary hair loss occurs about three weeks after a dose of 400 rad to scalp.
Delayed somatic effects are those that occur years after radiation doses are received.
