Exposure to gamma radiation leads to severe damage to DNA.  The bacterium Deinococcus radiodurans is able to survive exposure to levels of gamma radiation that would kill any other known organism.  This organism is able to survive because

#Unit 8. Inheritance Biology
  1. it is covered with a very thick cell wall that blocks radiation

  2. it produces its own mutagens that quickly revert mutations that result from radiation exposure

  3. it has several very efficient DNA repair systems

  4. it has hundreds of copies of its chromosome so it has a good chance of at least one surviving
