Answer: Option 5.
Decreases increases increases.
Explanation:
Electromagnetic spectrum refers to differences in frequencies, wavelengths and photon energies of electromagnetic radiation.
From the top of the list to the bottom i.e from radio waves, infrared waves, visible lights, ultraviolet radiation, gamma radiation, wavelengths decreases, the frequency increases as the photon energy increases.
The electromagnetic radiations : radio waves, microwaves, infrared, visible light, ultraviolet, X-rays, and gamma rays have high-frequency and short wavelengths. Their wavelengths decrease. The photon energy is directly proportional to wave frequency.
