<b>Yes.<
Is a unit of electromagnetic radiation.
<b>Initially I wrote no; however, I GUESS that if we say that electromagnetic radiation is composed of photons; perhaps that is the same as saying that a photon is a unit (two hotons, 10 photons, etc) but this is a strange way of saying it. </b>

Is a part of the electromagnetic spectrum.
<b>An individual photon fits somewhere on the electromagnetic spectrum.</b>
