Question

which type of emr passes through skin but is absorbed by bone? o gamma rays o x - rays o infrared o microwaves o radiowaves o visible light o ultraviolet

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

X - rays can pass through skin as skin is relatively transparent to them, but they are absorbed by bone due to the higher density of bone which interacts more strongly with X - rays. Other types like gamma rays can pass through both skin and bone more easily, while radio - waves, microwaves, infrared, and visible light are either absorbed or scattered by skin and do not have the same bone - absorbing property as X - rays.

Answer:

X - rays
