Why does a kidney scanner use gamma radiation rather than beta or alpha radiation?
since gamma radiation can penetrate more they are used in kidney scanners
The lower atmosphere is directly warmed by?
By the emission of the terrestrial radiation. Terrestrial radiation is emitted in the infrared long-wavelength part of the spectrum. It is terrestrial radiation rather than solar radiation that directly warms the lower atmosphere.
What is infrared radiation-?
Infrared radiation is when earths surface radiates some of earths surface back into the atmosphereinfrared radiation is a type of electromagnetic radiation, which involves waves rather than particles. This means that unlike conduction and convection radiation can even pass through the vacuum of space.infrared radiation is a form of electromagnetic radiation which is emitted in the form of heat. infrared radiation is invisible

Is electromagnetic radiation infrared radiation?
No, not in general. It is rather the other way around. Infrared radiation is electromagnetic radiation, and electromagnetic radiation spans multiple types of radiation, from microwaves, light, infrared, ultraviolet, radio, and more. So electromagnetic radiation could be infrared, but that is just one type of electromagnetic radiation

Membrane bones develop from hyaline cartilage structures?
It would be false to say membrane bones develop from hyaline cartilage structures. It is cartilage, rather than membrane bones, that comes from hyaline cartilage structures.
