Earth is in a place called the Goldilocks zone. If humans were not in this zone, it would be nearly impossible to survive. The Goldilocks zone is not too much of anything. For example, if we were on the planet Mercury or Venus, we could not survive because it is way too hot during the day time and very cold during the nighttime. We have it not to sunny here and not too cold. Without the sun, plants would not grow. Animals, including humans , need plants to eat. We also have not too much sun so the water on our Earth does not all evaporate.

Answer:

Visible light range (between 400 and 800 nm).

Explanation:

The Sun emits a large range of electromagnetic waves, from gamma rays (higher frequencies) to radio waves (lower frequencies), through X-rays, ultraviolet rays, visible light, infrared radiation, microwaves. The peak of the Sun's energy output is actually in the visible light range (between 400 and 800 nm).

In the graph I annexed, you can see a simplified representation of the energy emissions of the Sun versus the wavelengths of those emissions. The y-axis shows the amount of energy emitted at a given wavelength and the x-axis represents different wavelengths of EM radiation. In this graph is observable than the major emission of radiation emitted by the Sun is in the visible range.

I hope you find this information useful and interesting! Good luck!
