The condition under which a microwave oven heats up a food item containing water molecules most efficiently is :
 
1. The frequency of the microwaves has no relation with the natural frequency of water molecules.
2. Microwaves are heatwaves, so always produce heating.
3. Infra-red waves produce heating in a microwave oven.
4. The frequency of the microwaves must match the resonant frequency of the water molecules.
