Why is colour blindness more common in males?
The genes that produce photopigments are carried on the X chromosome; if some of these genes are missing or damaged, color blindness will be expressed in males with a higher probability than in females because males only have one X chromosome (in females, a good gene on only one of the two X chromosomes is enough to yield the needed photopigments).
What cells allow us to see color?
There are two types of photoreceptors in the retina. - Cones, which have less photopigments, allow us to see colours, - Rods, which have more photopigments, allow us to see in a less bright (dim) light. The photopigments in the cones are colour-specific, meaning, they are "sensitive" to their own specific colour. (red-sensitive to red, green-sensitive to green, and blue-sensitive to blue colour). These are the three kinds of colour-sensitive pigments, which "co-operation" allow us to see all the colours.
Why do plants not grow well in green light?
Plants have mesophyll cells that contain chloroplasts. In most green plants, chlorophyll a, chrlorophyll b (an accessory pigment), and carotenoids are the dominant photopigments. Each pigment is able to absorb the photons of light energy from sunlight and use it to complete photosynthesis. Chlorophyll a absorbs most energy from wavelengths of violet-blue and orange-red light and chlorophyll b absorbs mainly blue light. However, no photopigments in green plants are able to absorb green light. Thus, light not absorbed is reflected by the pigments, allowing the plants to appear the color green. When placed under a green light source, the pigments do not receive a sufficient amount of light energy to disrupt the reaction center of the photosystems essential for photosynthesis to occur.
