"Generally, electromagnetic radiation is classified by wavelength into radio wave, microwave, terahertz (or sub-millimeter) radiation, infrared, the visible region that is perceived as light, ultraviolet, X-rays and gamma rays. The behavior of EM radiation depends on its wavelength."

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello! Let's solve this!

The electromagnetic spectrum is where we can see all wavelengths. It is an energy distribution and we see electromagnetic waves such as X-rays, gamma rays, microwaves, ultraviolet rays, among others.

We can see which electromagnetic wave has the shortest known wavelength and which wave has the longest known wavelength.
