The visible spectrum (the radiation we can see as light). This is most likely why organisms evolved to be able to see visible light over other types of electromagnetic radiation - the sun emits this more than the other frequencies, so it was easier for life to evolve seeing this spectrum.

What are the direct and indirect effects of the electromagnetic spectrum on the life of earth?

The direct effects of the electromagnetic spectrum on Earth include providing sunlight for photosynthesis and warmth for sustaining life. Indirect effects include the impact of electromagnetic radiation on climate change due to the absorption and reflection of sunlight by the Earth's surface and atmosphere. Additionally, exposure to certain parts of the spectrum, such as ultraviolet radiation, can have harmful effects on living organisms, including human health.
