The condition under which a microwave oven heats up a food item containing water molecules most efficiently is:

1. the frequency of the microwave must match the resonant frequency of the water molecules.
2. the frequency of the microwave has no relation to the natural frequency of water molecules.
3. microwave are heatwaves, so always produce heating.
4. infrared waves produce heating in a microwave oven.
