__** Identify the limited range of wavelengths of the electromagnetic spectrum detected by humans and compare this range with those of other vertebrates and invertebrates **__

The electromagnetic spectrum are occupied by waves that have different wavelengths, the waves that are in the spectrum will contain different types of light for enjxample infra-red and also visible light. the most effective wavelengths for humans are blue-green light ( which are 500 nanometers), the other types are used by other organisms hello people but not much with humans. The human eye is responsive to a wide rang of wavelengths within the ranges of 350 to 750 nm.



The table below indicates different animals and ways that they detect wavelengths within the spectrum. "http://www.hsc.csu.edu.au/biology/options/communication/2950/CommPart2.html#2" 12:51
 * ~ Type of animal ||~ Name of animal ||~ Part of electromagnetic spectrum detected ||~ Wavelengths detected ||
 * Vertebrate || Human || visible || 700-400 nm ||
 * || Rattlesnake || infra-red and visible || 850-480 nm ||
 * || Japanese dace fish || ultraviolet and visible || as low as 360 nm ||
 * Invertebrate || Honeybee || ultraviolet and visible || 700-300 nm ||
 * || Mantis shrimp || ultraviolet and visible || 640-400 nm ||
