Explanation:

The electromagnetic spectrum encompasses a wide range of wavelengths and frequencies. X - rays (A), visible light (B), gamma rays (C), ultraviolet light (D), and infrared light (E) are all part of it. X - rays have high energy and short wavelengths, used in medical imaging. Visible light is what we can see, with wavelengths from about 400 - 700 nm. Gamma rays are the most energetic in the spectrum. Ultraviolet light has shorter wavelengths than visible light (used in sterilization, for example). Infrared light has longer wavelengths than visible light (used in remote controls, thermal imaging).

Answer:

A. X - rays, B. Visible light, C. Gamma rays, D. Ultraviolet light, E. Infrared light
