The human eye is only capable of seeing which electromagnetic wave?

• Infrared Light

• Ultraviolet Light

• Visible Light

• All of the above

This type of electromagnetic wave has different colors of light that all have different wavelengths.

• Gamma Rays

• Microwaves

• Infrared

• Visible Light

This type of electromagnetic wave has the most energy and therefore can be very dangerous.
