A) lUV < lIR < lVIS B) lUV > lVIS > lIR
C) lUV > lIR > lVIS D) lUV < lVIS < lIR

Infrared radiation, what we experience as heat when we hold our hand near a warm object, is somewhat longer wavelengths than visible light. Visible light is simply electromagnetic radiation in a range of wavelengths that our eyes are sensitive to. Visible wavelengths range from 0.0007 milimeters for red light, through orange, yellow, green, and blue, to 0.0004 milimeters for violet light. Ultraviolet is shorter wavelengths than violet.

a) Alleviates

b) Relegates

c) Downgrades

d) Transgresses

Answer & Explanation Answer: B) b-c

Explanation:

The sentence talks about “drought and food security” which has pestered the region and in addition to that the climate and geography has worsened the matter and forced them to come to isolation. “Relegate and downgrade” are the two words which means to move down to a lower position arethe most suitable word to be filled in the blank. “alleviates” which means to make less severe, will not complete the sentence sensibly. “Transgress” which means “to misbehave or to break the law” which does not fit in the context whatsoever.
