Solution

The correct option is B UV region
NameWavelength Frequency (Hz) Photon Energy (eV)
GammaLess than 0.01 nm More than 10EHz 100kev - 300+ GeV
X-ray0.01-10 nm 30EHz-30 PHz 120 eV-120 keV
Ultraviolet 10 nm-400nm 30 Phz-790 THz 3 eV-124 ev
Visible 390nm-750nm 790THz-405Thz 1.7 eV-3.3eV
Infrared 750 nm -1mm 405 THz-300 GHz1.24meV-1.7eV
Microwave 1 mm- 1 meter 300 GHz -300MHz1.24 μeV-1.24 MeV
Radio 1 mm- km 300GHz -3Hz 12.4 feV-1.24 meV

The range 100 A0 to 400A0 come under Ultraviolet spectrum.
