Which of the following is the correct order for types of radiation from lowest to highest frequency?
visible light → ultraviolet light → radio waves |
|
radio waves → visible light → gamma rays |
|
infrared waves → microwaves → ultraviolet light |
|
microwaves → radio waves → visible light |
The electromagnetic spectrum covers all possible wavelengths and frequencies of radiation. From lowest frequency (longest wavelength) to highest frequency (shortest wavelength) radiation: radio waves → microwaves → infrared waves → visible light → ultraviolet light → X-rays → gamma rays.

diaphragms |
|

Someone who has Rh-factor __________ blood cannot receive blood with a __________ type.
positive, antigen |
|
antigen, negative |
|
negative, positive |

positive, negative |
Blood transfer is limited by the type and Rh factor of the blood. Someone who has Rh-factor negative blood cannot receive blood with a positive type but a person with Rh-factor positive type blood can receive Rh-negative blood. Type O negative blood is the universal donor because it can be given to a person with any blood type. Type AB positive is the universal recipient meaning someone with this blood type can receive any other type of blood.

all of these |
|
within |
|
back to |
|
away from |
Veins carry blood back to the heart from the body. While arteries are thick-walled because they carry oxygenated blood at high pressure, veins are comparatively thin-walled as they carry low-pressure deoxygenated blood. Like the heart, veins contain valves to prevent blood backflow.
