My Inquiry Task by Latasha Pryn https://padlet.com/lpryn/548757ofczcr The Electromagnetic spectrum en-us 2018-03-14 01:18:49 UTC 2024-07-25 02:34:18 UTC hello@padlet.com My Personal Reflection lpryn https://padlet.com/lpryn/548757ofczcr/wish/241700853 This was not necessary but I decided to do it anyway
What is my inquiry?
        For my inquiry, I have chosen to pick the task that focuses on the Electromagnetic spectrum. (Option 3) 

What is asked of me during this task?
        In this inquiry task, I have been asked to research what animals/insect can see what in terms of the electromagnetic spectrum.

Why did I choose this?
        I chose this topic because I am still curious about learning a little bit in class and I wanted to expand on my knowledge about this subject.]]> 2018-03-14 03:22:13 UTC https://padlet.com/lpryn/548757ofczcr/wish/241700853 My Questions lpryn https://padlet.com/lpryn/548757ofczcr/wish/241701811 These are the questions that I am asking for this inquiry task.

  • Do bees have a different visible spectrum to us?
    • Bees can see ultraviolet light which is just above our visible spectrum.
    • What colours can Bees see?
    Bees can see Blue, Green and Yellow. However, they cant tell red from black.
    • Can they see a different type of light (e.g. UV or IR)?
    Bees can see in UV(Ultra Violet) light.

  • Do butterflies have a different visible spectrum to us?
    • Butterflies see in ultraviolet light and polarized light which is more than we can see.
    • What colours can butterflies see?
    Butterflies can not see in the same way we do. they have compound eyes which means that they see in millions of tiny lenses. this allows them to see in many different directions at the same time. This is the reason its hard to catch a butterfly
    • Can they see a different type of light (e.g. UV or IR)?
    Butterflies can identify ultraviolet and polarized light. All that polarised means is that they don't catch the glare of the sun as their eyes block it out. Butterflies are better at noticing fast-moving objects as their visual fields are larger.

  • Do Dogs have a different visible spectrum to us?
    • Yes. Dogs have a different Visible spectrum to us, humans, as they can't tell the difference between red and green but they still see blue and yellow as shown in the picture below.

  • What colours can dogs see?
    • Dogs can see Blue and yellow but have trouble telling the difference between red and green. 
    • Can they see a different type of light (e.g. UV or IR)?
    No, Dogs are one of the few animals that I am researching that cannot see in any special type of light

  • Do cats have a different visible spectrum to us?
    • Cats can see in the dark and in Infrared light. 
    • What colours can cats see?
    Cats can only see in blue and yellow as it is the only two coloured cones in their eyes.
    • Can they see a different type of light (e.g. UV or IR)?
    Although they cannot see UV light, Cats can see in the dark which is very interesting because they are crepuscular. All this means is that they are up hunting at dawn and dusk.

  • Do snakes have a different visible spectrum to us?
    • Snakes can see at night and in the dark.
    • What colours can snakes see?
    Snakes cant see in colours but have extra special features.
    • Can they see a different type of light (e.g. UV or IR)?
    Snakes can see in IR light which is how they spot out their prey, as their prey can't see IR light.
