Light is made up of radiation of different wavelengths/frequencies; our eyes can perceive some of these differences in wavelengths/frequencies.

That is a very good question! There is electromagnetic spectrum with frequency of ten raised to minus twelve to ten raised to three meters. Your eyes perceive the fraction of the same, called as light. With higher frequency of light waves, you see the violet colour. With medium frequency light waves, you see the green colour. With lower frequency light waves, you see the red colour. With permutations and combinations of these three colours, you can see the millions of colours. Life will be colourless without colours.
