Why are there seven colours in a rainbow?

Because "color" is an interaction between the visible light portion of the electromagnetic spectrum and the light sensitive parts of our eyes. Our eyes have evolved 4 different receptors--one each for Red, Green and Blue and another for violet. A rainbow actually contains millions of colors, but we have evolved to categorize most of the wavelengths in the visible spectrum as one of the primary colors and their combinations.
