Answer:

Electromagnetic Radiation

Step-by-step explanation:

When light shines on an object, it is reflected, absorbed, or transmitted through the object, depending on the object's material and the frequency (color) of the light. However, because light can travel through space, it cannot be a matter wave, like sound or water waves.
