Kathryn
• Franco
Darius
Anya

Answer 1

To determine which student is correct regarding the relationship between wavelength and frequency, we need to recall the basic principle that the wavelength and frequency of a wave are inversely related. This means that as the frequency increases, the wavelength decreases, and vice versa.

Given the statements of the students:

- Darius: increase (suggests wavelength increases when frequency increases)
- Kathryn: increase (same as Darius)
- Anya: decrease (suggests wavelength decreases when frequency increases)
- Franco: remain the same (suggests wavelength stays the same regardless of frequency)

Based on the relationship where an increase in frequency results in a decrease in wavelength, the only student who is correct is **Anya**.

So, the correct answer is **Anya**.
