1) microfilled composites contain filler particles with a mean diameter of 0.04 μm;
2) polymerization of the composites can be activated by an exposure to visible blue light of 470-480 nm wavelength;
3) microfilled composites contain filler particles with a mean diameter of 0.4 μm;
4) resin-modified glass ionomer cements are used in the atraumatic restorative treatment technique;
5) hybrid composites are known as compomers.
The correct answer is:
