A veterinarian thinks that a dog has swallowed a key ring. Which types of electromagnetic waves is the doctor most likely to use to check the dog?

Answer
A
gamma rays
B
microwaves
C
radio waves
D
X-rays

Explanation

X-rays pass through soft tissue but are absorbed more by dense objects, so they can reveal a swallowed key ring in an image of the dog. Therefore, the doctor is most likely to use X-rays.
