Answer:

B.) visible light

Step-by-step explanation:

Electromagnetic radiation in the visible light region is the only radiation that can be detected by human eyes. When the electromagnetic waves in this region hit the rod and cone cells in our eyes, we see color. Humans do not have other specialized cells in the eyes capable of receiving and processing other wavelengths of radiation.
