    B. Infrared.

    Explanation:

    Referring to the electromagnetic spectrum, ultraviolet rays can be measured with a frequency of 10-⁸, infrared has a frequency of 10-⁵, visible radiation has a frequency of 0.5 x 10-⁶ meanwhile X-rays show a frequency of 10-¹⁰.

    Hence, the largest magnitude among the rest goes to infrared rays, which makes B the correct answer.
