  2. B(A)-(I), (B)-(II), (C)-(III), (D)-(IV)
  3. C(A)-(II), (B)-(I), (C)-(III), (D)-(IV)
  4. D(A)-(IV), (B)-(III), (C)-(II), (D)-(I)

Correct answer

B. (A)-(I), (B)-(II), (C)-(III), (D)-(IV)

Step-by-step solution

The electromagnetic spectrum consists of various waves with characteristic wavelength ranges:

Radio waves have the longest wavelengths, typically >0.1 m> 0.1\text{ m} (order of 102 m10^{2}\text{ m}).
Visible light ranges from 400 nm400\text{ nm} to 700 nm700\text{ nm}, which is of the order of 10−6 m10^{-6}\text{ m}.
X-rays have wavelengths in the range of 10−8 m10^{-8}\text{ m} to 10−13 m10^{-13}\text{ m} (order of 10−10 m10^{-10}\text{ m}).
Gamma rays have the shortest wavelengths, typically <10−12 m< 10^{-12}\text{ m} (order of 10−14 m10^{-14}\text{ m}).

Thus, the correct matching is (A)-(I), (B)-(II), (C)-(III), (D)-(IV).

Answer: (A)-(I), (B)-(II), (C)-(III), (D)-(IV)
