Solution

The correct option is B
Microwaves

Microwaves are the form of electromagnetic radiation with wavelengths ranging from one meter to one millimeter. And with frequencies between 300 MHz and 300 GHz. It is produced by the crystal oscillator.

Microwaves are extremely widely used in modern technology. They are used for point-to-point communication links, wireless networks, radar, satellite communication, for cancer treatment, remote sensing, radio astronomy, garage door openers and keyless entry systems, and for cooking food in microwave ovens.
