Electromagnetic waves are typically represented by sinusoidal waves in diagrams, where the oscillation of the electric and magnetic fields is shown propagating through space. The electric field is often shown as oscillating along one axis, while the magnetic field oscillates perpendicular to it. These representations illustrate the wave nature of electromagnetic radiation.

How is electromagnetic spectrum related to electrons?

No direct relation; electromagnetic waves are transmitted by photons. However, electromagnetic waves are often caused by the acceleration of electric charges, and those charges are usually electrons. Also, electromagnetic waves are emitted and absorbed when an electron (in an atom) changes to another energy level.
