Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The mechanism of indirect action refers to the formation of free radicals through the hydrolysis of water. This process can damage DNA and other biomolecules, leading to mutagenesis and other effects. Fractionation and the oxygen effect are not directly related to the formation of free radicals through hydrolysis, and mutagenesis is only one possible consequence of this process.
