There are not 7 electromagnetic waves. EM is a continuous spectrum. However, EM waves can be classified by their wavelength Radio waves Infra Red Visible Light Ultra Violet Microwaves x-rays gamma-rays (note x-rays and gamma rays are classified by the origin , not by wavelength, however in practice, gamma rays are higher frequency)
