Answer: The wavelength of light increases.

Explanation:

As we proceed outward from the innermost band of the rainbow the wavelength of light increases.

when light travels through a prism, the wavelengths separate into different colors (which are colors of the rainbow). These colors are Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo and Violet. Each color has a different wavelength. Violet has the shortest wavelength of about 380 nanometers and red has the longest of about 700 nanometers. When you look at a rainbow, the innermost portion has a violet coloration while the outer most is red, hence the wavelength of light increases from the innermost band to the outermost. That is, from about 380 nanometers to about 700 nanometers.

5.A solar nebula forms when the gas and dust are pulled together in a spinning disk. Particles began to clump together due to gravity, and larger chunks of material exert more gravity on nearby dust and gas. These chunks of material grew faster and formed planets or moons. Denser elements such as iron settled closer to the center of the solar nebula.

The increased ranges of plant and insect species resulting from climate change has only negative consequences.
dedylja [7]

False, it has also positive consequences for other specie advantages. 

Like any other change, it has a both positive and negative effect on the said biosphere, ecosystem or the entire living organisms that exists and co-exist. Climate change maybe is one of todays greatest selection and environment forces that reforms a lot of living organism and especially the climate.
