Actually, our brains perceive the color. Eyes are a sensory organ. When light of various frequencies enters the eyes through the lens and falls on the retina, different chemicals in the retinal cells respond to different properties of the light. Some color sensitive chemicals respond to differences in the red-green frequency shifts, while others respond to differences in the blue-yellow frequency shifts. When these chemical dyes are stimulated by light, the nerve cells that contain them are stimulated and send signals to higher organizations of nerves in the brain that interpret the significance of the color differences. Other nerves in the retina are specialized to respond to dark/light differences; still others respond to movement.

The cells responsible for color vision in mammalian eyes are called?
The cells responsible for the color vision in mammals are called as cones. I have been remembering the same by color vision by cones. That C and C. The brightness is perceived by rod cells. This is how you dispel the confusion. There are cones and rods to perceive the vision.
The cells in the retina are called what?
Rods, which perceive black and white and gray, and cones, which perceive color.
Is there color in the dark?
Colors do not exist without light. Your eyes have rod cells and cone cells and only the cone cells can perceive color. However, in low light areas only rod cells are sensitive enough to be activated and they cannot perceive colour. This is a physiological interpretation to the question as color, as far as we know, is an animal perception to the differences in the frequency of light and may not be a universal perception.
What are the internal problems of color blindness?
one cannot see color, or perceive color differences
What is white light compose of?
Light, no matter what color, is composed of photons. Each photon has a specific wavelength (color) associated with it. Because of the way our eyes work, at least three different wavelengths are required for us to perceive light as "white".
