  11. Together, they make up…

  12. Radio Microwave Infrared The Electromagnetic Spectrum Ultraviolet Gamma Ray X-ray Visible

  13. Is electromagnetic radiation harmful? • It depends… • Radio, microwave, infrared, and visible usually aren’t harmful, but can be if the radiation is very strong • Ultraviolet, x-rays, and gamma rays are more harmful

  14. We can’t see it • But the radiation is still there. • There is Electromagnetic radiation from radio antennas, cell phone towers, the Sun, and other sources in this room. • You, like this dog, are a source of infrared electromagnetic radiation!
