Hi guys, I am confused.
Does the term "effect" in the context below means
1. "to have an impact on something"
OR
2. "to cause, produce"?
Many thanks!
Context:
The frequencies around the one meter wave length range effect protons.
Especially free protons as in water or acids.
The cosmic microwave radiation is a left over from the big bang and is constantly bombarding us.
This is a natural stimulation.
But now unnatural microwaves can and do effect us.
Infrared and visible light with wave lengths around a micro meter effect electron.
Higher frequencies have too much energy and the can kick out an electron.

should be AFFECT
A typo. Should be "The frequencies... ... AFFECT protons."

| Actually. It seems to me that, the author used it intentionally. |
