Solution

The correct option is B Radio waves
  • The basic building block of radio communications is a radio wave. Like waves in a pond, a radio wave is a series of repeating peaks and valleys.
  • Radio waves are a type of electromagnetic radiation best-known for their use in communication technologies, such as television, mobile phones and radios.
  • It is generated by a transmitter and then detected by a receiver. These devices receive radio waves and convert them to mechanical vibrations in the speaker to create sound waves.
