Quite simply, because there are individual differences between species. In this case, the range of the electromagnetic waves they can see is a little larger for some animals. I don't think that ALL animals, or even all animals with eyes, can see a larger range of radiation than humans.

What are three forms of radiation that humans cannot see?

Ultraviolet radiation, X-rays, and gamma rays are three forms of radiation that humans cannot see. These forms of radiation have wavelengths shorter than visible light and are not within the visible spectrum.


Which has higher frequency ultraviolet or infrared?

Infrared and Ultraviolet light fall just outside human vision. The frequency of infrared light is less than the frequency of visible red light. There are different definitions and classifications of infrared, but the frequency ranges from 3 x 10 11 Hz (300 Gigahertz or 1000 micrometer wavelength) to about 4.3 x 10 14 Hz (0.7 micrometer wavelength). Ultraviolet's frequency is greater than the frequency of Violet light. This can range from 7.5 x 10 14 Hz (400 nanometer wavelength) to 3.0 x 10 16 Hz (10 nanometer wavelength). See related links.


Can you see all parts of the electromagnetic spectrum?

No. Radio, microwave, heat, infrared, ultraviolet, x-rays, or gamma rays are not part of the visible spectrum. Visible light has frequencies between 400 - 800 nm

What is Nonvisible radiation?

Nonvisible radiation refers to types of radiation that cannot be perceived by the human eye, such as ultraviolet, infrared, and radio waves. Although they are not visible, these forms of radiation can have various effects on living organisms and the environment. Safety precautions are often necessary when dealing with nonvisible radiation sources.


Are you seeing ultraviolet rays when you see ultraviolet light?

no, because ultraviolet rays are just above seeing and with ultraviolet lights, you see a more violet color.


Why can't you see infrared light or radiowaves with your naked eyes?

Answer Your brain can't see heat, ultraviolet light, radiowaves, X-Rays, etc. with your naked eyes, because these different kinds of light's wavelengths are either too long or too short for your naked eyes to see. So that is why you can't see infrared


Which colour can not be seen by a human?

Humans do not see the infrared or ultraviolet forms of light.


What type of electromagnetic wave do humans see?

Human eye can see light rays only. Most probably the vise verse is true. The electromagnetic rays that are seen by the human eye are called as light rays. It is from violet to red colors. Ultraviolet and infrared rays are not seen by human eye.


What are colors that the human eye cannot see?

Ultraviolet and infrared are colors that the human eye cannot see.
