Term Information

Accession: GO:0009584
Name: detection of visible light
Ontology: biological_process
Synonyms: perception of visible light
Alternate IDs: None
Definition: The series of events in which a visible light stimulus is received by a cell and converted into a molecular signal. A visible light stimulus is electromagnetic radiation that can be perceived visually by an organism; for organisms lacking a visual system, this can be defined as light with a wavelength within the range 380 to 780 nm.
