During the last decade there was a change in paradigm, which led toconsider that terrestrial-type planets within liquid-water habitablezones (LW-HZ) around M stars can be suitable places for theemergence and evolution of life. However, many dMe stars emit largeamount of UV radiation during flares, and it is uncertain how these UVevents can affect the evolution of life in this environment, sincelife is particularly vulnerable to ultraviolet radiation (UV). In fact, high exposure to UVC (wavelengths
