Answer:

The correct answer is option A, Any object in the universe with a temperature above absolute zero

Step-by-step explanation:

All objects which are at absolute zero temperature radiates energy in the form of electromagnetic waves. The energy radiated is calculated using Planck’s law

E = hc/lambda

h = Boltzmann constant

c = speed of light and

lambda = wavelength

The higher the temperature of the body the shorter will be the wavelength of the radiations.
