Based on the given statement or reasoning above made by a student, what makes her reasoning incorrect is the part where she mentioned that "if they had not been built, she would not be exposed to radioactivity."

What makes this incorrect is that background radiation is a kind of radiation that is emitted by the sun, stars, and other bodies outside the universe and therefore, no one can escape from this.
