Answer: It helps to regulate circadian rhythm

Exposure to natural light during the day helps regulate the circadian rhythm, which improves sleep pattern. The term circadian rhythm refers to our biochemical, physiological and behavioral processes in approximately 1 full day cycle. Circadian rhythm plays an important role in controlling when we fall asleep and when we wake up.

During day light, the secretion of melatonin or sleep hormone is suppress by melanopsin that keeps people awake and alert. Nevertheless, during nighttime, melanopsin stimulates the release of melatonin to signal sleeping time. Therefore, this hormone works the entire day and has direct effect on the circadian rhythm, which acts as a regulator of our biological clock.

<h2>Answer is option "b"</h2>

Explanation:

  • Non-ionizing radiation is radiation that has a lower frequency, or longer wavelength, in the EMR spectrum. These frequencies range from that of power lines, radios, and cell phones, up to visible light. Non-ionizing radiation is not powerful enough to break the chemical bonds in molecules. In general, it is not harmful to human health as radiation per se, but could be harmful in terms of the transfer of heat energy. An example of an emitter of non-ionizing radiation is a microwave oven.
  • Non-ionizing radiation is less harmful because the rays carry much less energy. Radio waves, light, and even heat are examples of non-ionizing radiation. For the most part, these kinds of radiation do not cause any damage. However, ultraviolet light is a kind of non-ionizing radiation that can be harmful - it can cause mutations in DNA
  • Non-ionizing radiation is limited to the lower energy range electromagnetic radiation, which is more commonly known as light. However, the light we can see with our eyes, visible light, is only a small section of the electromagnetic radiation spectrum as seen here
  • Hence the right answer is option "b"
