naked eyes and the activities of radio waves in our radios and TVs. HISTORY OF THE ELECTROMAGNETIC SPECTRUM DISCOVERY The ancient Greeks recognized that light traveled in straight lines and studied some of its properties‚ including reflection and refraction. Over the years the study of light continued and during the 16th and 17th centuries there were conflicting theories which regarded light as either a wave or a particle. The first discovery of electromagnetic radiation other than visible light

March 26‚ 2013 Lecture -The function of the eye is to convert photons of light into action potentials (nerve impulses). -The inner layer is a nervous tunic (made out of nerve cells)=retina. -Refraction: Bends light. -The purpose of the cornea and the lens is to take an object and focus every little detail of the object on the retina on the back of the lens.
