Step-by-step explanation:

Red and violet are the two extremes on this spectrum. Red has the lowest frequency and the longest wavelength. Violet has the highest frequency and the shortest wavelength.

Answer: The correct answer is VIBGYOR.

Visible light is the part of the electromagnetic spectrum that is detected by human eyes. We can see the different colors in the spectrum of visible light because of the wavelength that corresponds to a particular light and is reflected back to our eyes.

The visible light spectrum ranges from Voilet ( 400 nm) to red (700nm).

Thus, the sequence showing the colors of visible light from shortest to longest wavelength is- V- Voilet, I- Indigo, B- Blue, G- green, Y- yellow, O- orange, R- red
