- 12. a type of energy made from the vibration of electric and magnetic fields that can travel through empty space
- 15. the shortest wavelength on the electromagnetic spectrum
- 16. the process of plants absorbing energy from light to make food
- 18. a pattern that describes how energy is carried from one place to another
- 19. the distance from one wave to another
- 21. the moving of electromagnetic waves through a material
- 22. a type of wave that carries energy from one place to another, even through empty space
Down
- 1. a range of wavelengths, which includes all of the different types of light
