There's no such thing as "pure energy".

Gamma rays are <em>electromagnetic waves</em> with very high frequency and very short wavelength.  They carry energy in the form of high-energy photons.

natulia [17]

Answer:

Level 4 to level 2

Explanation:

Electrons in an atom are contained in specific energy levels (1, 2, 3, and so on) having different distances from the nucleus. When light is emitted by electrons from one energy level to a lower level, level 4 to level 2 has the greatest energy.

Hence, the correct option is "Level 4 to level 2".

Give two environmental effects of using wood as an energy resource.
vladimir2022 [97]

Answer:

Using wood also helps keep carbon out of the atmosphere, helping to mitigate climate change.

Deforestation.  

Explanation:

Trees store carbon dioxide as they grow. After harvest, wood products continue to store much of this carbon. These benefits continue when wood is reclaimed to manufacture other products.

Extraction of wood within the supply areas clearly affects the forest and the environment. Some of these impacts can be seen in the study areas. The rainfall is increasingly irregular, biodiversity has been lost. Communities have experienced flooding and drought, which adversely affects the most important sector in the country's economy, that of agriculture. The local populations are concerned about these impacts, which affect not only the environment but the whole social economy.
