The correct option is C Radio waves

The electromagnetic spectrum's longest wavelengths are found in radio waves. Radio waves have wavelengths between 1 millimeter and 100 kilometers and frequencies ranging from 300 GHz to as low as 3 kHz. The shortest wavelength is that of gamma rays, which have a wavelength of less than 0.5 1010 meters. The range of wavelength for ultraviolet rays is from 0.5×10−6 to 0.4×10−8 metre while range of red light is from 0.4×10−6 to 0.8−8 metre.
