Afterimage is a visual phenomenon that happens when you see a lingering image after looking at a bright light. This occurs because the light overstimulates the retina in your eye, causing a temporary image to remain even after you look away.
Intense light, such as from a flashbulb or uncovered light bulb, can stimulate the retina (the light-sensitive tissue at the back of the eye) to its maximum response. When this occurs, it takes awhile for the retina to "recover." For a short time you are not able to see well, or you may see spots or a dark afterimage.
A biological phenomenon is a process or event that occurs within a living organism, involving physical and chemical aspects of the body. On the other hand, a psychological phenomenon refers to a mental or cognitive process that occurs in the mind, such as thoughts, emotions, or behaviors.
I am not a doctor nor any kind of researcher. Just someone who sneezes when I walk out into the sun. My idea is that when we are exposed to the bright light, we squint our eyes. When this happens it restricts our sinuses. A natural way of clearing our sinuses is a sneeze.
No, women do not experience morning wood as it is a phenomenon that typically occurs in men due to hormonal changes during sleep.
The phenomenon you are describing is called plasmolysis. This occurs when water leaves the cell, causing the contents to shrink and pull away from the cell wall.

An afterimage occurs when visual sensory receptors, called cones and rods, become fatigued after staring at a bright image for an extended period. When you look away, the fatigued cells send a delayed signal to the brain, causing you to perceive a ghostly or negative image of the original stimulus.

When you stare at a bright cyan square and then look at a white surface, you may experience an afterimage effect. Your eyes will momentarily perceive a reddish-orange square on the white surface due to the way your photoreceptors adapt to the intense cyan light. This occurs because the cones in your eyes become desensitized to the cyan light, leading to a temporary visual illusion of the complementary color. This phenomenon is a result of the brain's processing of color and contrast.
When you stare at a primary color for an extended period, the photoreceptors in your eyes become fatigued and desensitized to that color. When you look away, the overstimulated cells temporarily respond less, leading to a perception of the complementary color, which is the color opposite on the color wheel. This phenomenon is known as afterimage, and it occurs because your brain is trying to balance the visual input it receives.

The name of the phenomenon is refraction.

Interference is a phenomenon where two or more waves overlap and interact with each other. In the case of light, interference occurs when two light waves meet and either reinforce (constructive interference) or cancel out (destructive interference) each other, resulting in a pattern of bright and dark fringes.
a theory
A negative afterimage occurs when a visual stimulus is removed, and the viewer perceives a complementary color or brightness in the absence of the original image. This phenomenon indicates that the photoreceptors in the eyes, specifically the cones responsible for color vision, become fatigued after prolonged exposure to certain colors. When the stimulus is no longer present, the fatigued cones respond less, leading to the perception of the opposite color. This effect highlights the way our visual system adapts and processes images over time.
The phenomenon of polarization occurs for transverse waves, such as light waves and electromagnetic waves.
