Multiple Choice

Why is ultraviolet radiation damaging?

A) Because it consists of wavelengths that are longer than visible light, the energy of the photons of ultraviolet light is greater and more damaging to biological molecules.
B) Because it consists of wavelengths that are shorter than visible light, the energy of the photons of ultraviolet light is greater and more damaging to biological molecules.
C) Because it consists of wavelengths that are shorter than visible light, the energy of the photons of ultraviolet light is lesser and more damaging to biological molecules.
D) Because it consists of wavelengths that are shorter than visible light, the energy of the photons of ultraviolet light is lesser and less damaging to biological molecules.
