The analysis of the results of irradiation of DNA isolated from lymphocytes by an ultrahigh frequency electromagnetic field was carried out. The natural frequency of torsional vibrations of the spirals of collagen molecules was found. It is proved theoretically that single-strand breaks in the DNA of lymphocytes by microwaves are caused by torsional vibrations of the helices of DNA molecules whose natural frequencies coincide with the frequencies of microwaves, and the resonant frequencies have been found. For research, instead of millimeter waves, multiple frequencies of centimeter waves were used. The theoretical analysis has been confirmed experimentally: a multiple frequency in the centimeter range causes a maximum increase in single-strand DNA breaks of arthropod hemolymph amoebocytes, while close frequencies do not lead to an increase in the number of single-strand breaks.
