The concept of risk assessment is based on determining the individual and collective (population) risk of a pathological condition under the influence of adverse environmental factors [1, 2]. In modern conditions, public health directly depends on the safety of the environment and the level of disease prevention. The activity of a modern person is carried out in conditions of an increase in the intensity and duration of the action of adverse environmental factors. The combination, simultaneous or sequential action of several factors leads to a mutual burdening of their influence on the human body, causing a rapid depletion of human physiological reserves. In response to the effect of a certain dose (intensity and duration) of unfavorable factors, states of extreme stress of adaptation mechanisms with reversible phenomena of maladjustment can develop [3].

The study shows no excess of health-based exposure limits. However, the excess of radonconcentrationwas registered at the site of land allocation for average global construction, and the radionuclide content (226Ra, 232Th, 40Ê) in the soil of some regions was higher than the worldwide background (percentage abundance) and multi-year average data for the Russian Federation and Kazakhstan. Key words : Exposure dose rate, Radon exhalation, Radionuclide soil contamination, Radionuclide specific activity, Soil type, Natural and artificial radionuclides Introduction places where the levels of radiation are much higher than the average value (0.3-0.6 mSv/year). People get the element part of exposure to natural The dose of radiation also depends on human radiation sources. Natural radiation background lifestyle.

  • Epic Image of Koblandy Batyr and His Historical Personality

But this is a special kind of creativity, which took the real truth from the life of this people and transferred it into an epic narrative. And any kind of creativity tends to artistry. Hence, the epic is basically a historical work that embodies the dream of the people and their real life. Methods: Heroic epic is a special branch of folklore, which is a witness to the centuries-old historical memory of the people, an inseparable spiritual thread, a sign of the presence of high culture. Findings: According to the scientist M. O. Auezov: "Careful, detailed analysis of the Kazakh heroic stories shows: although it can not be said that they clearly reveal the pages of history, but still in allegorical form they draw great pictures of the most important periods of this ancient history" [Auezov, 1991]. Heroic epic allows you to see the life of the people in the distant past, to trace the chain of long-standing historical events, epic traditions and the time of their appearance.
