Question

which ems wave has the shortest wavelength (nucleus - sized) and is emitted by radioactive materials that can kill living cells? gamma rays x - rays ultraviolet visible

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Gamma rays have the shortest wavelength in the electromagnetic spectrum (EMS). They are emitted by radioactive materials and can kill living cells due to their high energy and ionizing properties. X - rays have longer wavelengths than gamma rays. Ultraviolet and visible light have even longer wavelengths compared to both gamma and X - rays.

Answer:

Gamma Rays
