gamma radiation
alpha radiation
beta radiation

Explanation:

To determine which radiation has a charge of 1-, we analyze each option:

• Gamma Radiation: Consists of high - energy photons, has no charge (charge = 0).
• Alpha Radiation: Is a helium nucleus ($\ce{^4_2He}$), so it has a charge of +2.
• Beta Radiation: Is an electron ($\ce{e^-}$) or a positron. When it is an electron, it has a charge of - 1 (1-).

Answer:

Beta Radiation
