Radio waves, infrared radiation, visible light, ultraviolet rays, and X rays are forms of ____
A
Sound Waves
B
Tidal Waves
C
Electromagnetic Waves
D
Sonic Waves
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Radio waves, gamma-rays, visible light, and all the other parts of the electromagnetic spectrum are electromagnetic radiation. Electromagnetic radiation can be described in terms of a stream of mass-less particles, called photons, each traveling in a wave-like pattern at the speed of light.

Detailed explanation-2: –X rays and radio waves are both forms of light, or electromagnetic radiation.-X rays travel through space faster than radio waves.-X rays have shorter wavelengths than radio waves.

Detailed explanation-3: -These include ultraviolet (UV) and infrared (IR) “light” that is just beyond the range of human vision. They also include more exotic forms of radiation such as X-rays, gamma rays, and radio waves. Together, all of these different “colors” of light are called the electromagnetic spectrum, or EM spectrum for short.

Detailed explanation-4: -Examples of EM radiation include radio waves and microwaves, as well as infrared, ultraviolet, gamma, and x-rays.

Detailed explanation-5: -X-rays are a form of electromagnetic radiation similar to radio waves, microwaves, visible light and gamma rays.
