What kind of electromagnetic radiation will cause skin to burn?
Protection from ultraviolet radiation is what we use sunblock for. UV (ultraviolet) rays have high energy and can damage skin.
Electromagnetic energy in the X ray section of the spectrum transmits through skin like light passes through?
the correct answer is a:air im in plato to so
What electromagnetic wave IS perceivable by humans?
The "visible light" spectrum, known as "visible light", is perceived by receptors at the back of our eyes, and a portion of the infrared spectrum, known as "heat" is detected by nerve endings in our skin.
In what portion of the electromagnetic spectrum does the sun emit most energy?
The sun's radiation comes as 45 percent visible light. 40 percent infared, and the remainder as Ultraviolet. This is why the Sun is damaging to our eyes as well as skin while giving us the light we need.
What are the chemical and physical protections offered by the skin?
the skin protects us from mechanical damage, chemical damage, bacterial damage, ultraviolet radiation, thermal, and desiccation.

Can permanently damage skin?
There are many things that can damage skin. Some of them are surprising. Excess exposure to chlorine can damage skin. A lot of ingredients in make up can be damaging to skin as well as spending too much time in the sun.
Why is too much exposure to radiation dangerous?
Too much radiation from the sun can permanently damage your skin and could cause skin cancer.
What are the dangers of being in contact with electromagnetic waves from the electromagnetic spectrum Like gamma rays and radio waves and x-rays?
the contact yo this radiations may cause skin cancer and even death.
Which type of energy cause sunburn?
Do you mean 'Which electromagnetic wave in the electromagnetic spectrum causes sunburn? The answer is Ultraviolet (UV), which is what is used in sunbeds and therefore damages and colours your skin cells.
What kind of electromagnetic radiation will cause skin to burn?
Protection from ultraviolet radiation is what we use sunblock for. UV (ultraviolet) rays have high energy and can damage skin.
What links a suntan to the EM spectrum?
A suntan is caused by the release of the pigment Melanin in the skin. This is the body's defensive response to harmful Ultraviolet radiation that makes up part of the Sun's rays. Ultraviolet is part of the Electromagnetic Spectrum.

Is skin electromagnetic?
Yes
Is ultraviolet dangerous?
UV radiation is of a high energy, therefore it can cause damage to living cells. The dangers faced by humans include; most commonly damage to the skin, but also damage to the eye and immune system. Most people experience sunburn at some time in their lives, but UV can cause more serious skin damage such as cancer as a result of DNA damage.
