EM waves

-
The EM wave's speed can be different when switching from one medium to another, but the frequency of the wave remains the same
-
ionizing waves have higher frequencies which leads them to eject electrons from atoms and molecules, making them become ions. This can cause harm to the cell as the ions can disrupt cell functions or even kill them.
