  • "Color vision is a synthesis of red, green, and blue light." No, it's a synthesis of every color in the rainbow--literally. "One responding to red light, one to green, and one to blue light. Some of these cones, however, can be stimulated by the whole visual spectrum." Huh? It would appear the intent is to convey that our color vision works like RGB monitors. But that's not the case.

  • @punkrocker95 yellow is perceived via stimulation of the receptors but it doesn't have its own one.

  • @ecairol sorry, you're wrong. Look up young and helmholtz trichromatic theory.

  • @ecairol wow, retard

  • yeah.. in fact I realize that a few days after writing that comment, hahaha :) It's interesting.

  • and anyways, this info is wrong.. the three colors are red, yellow and blue. not green. green = blue + yellow.

  • (yawn)
