The accepted range for the wavelengths of light that the humaneye can detect is roughly between 400nm and 700nm. Is it aco-incidence that these wavelengths are identical to those in thePhotosynthetically Active Radiation (PAR) range (the wavelength oflight used for normal photosynthesis)?

Alternatively is there something special about photonswith those energy levels that is leading to stabilising selectionin multiple species as diverse as humans and plants?
