Detailed explanation-1: -The electromagnetic spectrum includes X-rays. As the wavelengths of light decrease, they increase in energy.
Detailed explanation-2: -The other types of EM radiation that make up the electromagnetic spectrum are microwaves, infrared light, ultraviolet light, X-rays and gamma-rays.
Detailed explanation-3: -Electromagnetic spectrum consists of radio waves, microwaves, infrared waves, visible spectrum, ultraviolet waves, X-rays and gamma rays. It does not include alpha rays.
Detailed explanation-4: -Both x-rays and gamma rays are forms of high-frequency (high-energy) ionizing radiation, which means they have enough energy to remove an electron from (ionize) an atom or molecule. Ionizing radiation can damage the DNA (genes) inside a cell.
