    Explanation:

    Electromagnetic spectrum is the classification of the electromagnetic waves based on their frequency and wavelength. In order from the shortest to the longest wavelength, we have

    Gamma rays

    X-rays

    Ultraviolet

    Visible light

    Infrared radiation

    Microwaves

    Radio waves

    All these waves are invisible to human eye, except for the visible light part. Visible light is perceived as a different color by the human eye, depending on the wavelength of the light. In particular, we have:

    Violet: 380 - 450 nm

    Blue: 450 - 495 nm

    Green: 495 - 570 nm

    Yellow: 570 nm - 590 nm

    Orange: 590 nm - 620 nm

    Red: 620 nm - 750 nm
