Question

which waves can increase the risk of cancer? infrared and x-rays gamma and visible light ultraviolet and gamma radio and microwaves

Explanation:

Ultraviolet (UV) radiation and gamma rays are both ionizing radiations. Ionizing radiation has enough energy to damage DNA, which can lead to mutations and potentially cancer. Infrared, visible light, radio, and microwaves are non - ionizing radiations and do not have sufficient energy to directly damage DNA in a way that significantly increases cancer risk. X - rays are also ionizing but the option with X - rays here (Infrared and X - Rays) has a non - ionizing (Infrared) component. Gamma and visible light: visible light is non - ionizing. Radio and microwaves: both non - ionizing.

Answer:

Ultraviolet and Gamma
