I will be happy to critique your thoughts. Some have multiple answers, although the teacher may not realize that. Choose from among the following:
infrared, visible, radio (VLF), microwave, ultraviolet, xray and gamma ray

I just found some of the answers out- which I didnt know before, and I have found I dont know some of the other ones, could you tell me if the answers are wrong or right? and if you could help me with the answers I dont know, that would be great-
