Question

What do gamma rays consist of?

only electrons
pure energy
only protons
beta particles

Answer 1

There's no such thing as "pure energy".

Gamma rays are electromagnetic waves with very high frequency and very short wavelength. They carry energy in the form of high-energy photons.

Answer 2

It consists of the shortest wavelength electromagnetic waves and so impacts the highest photon energy. So I'm guessing B- pure energy is the answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

A gamma ray, or gamma radiation is a penetrating electromagnetic radiation arising from the radioactive decay of atomic nuclei. This is what I got off google
