According to physics and physiology- ALL animals except for a certain type of burrower do not have as many, if any cones present in the eye- cones are what detects color. So, No they don't see fully in black in white but they don't see fully in color either, but definitely more in black in white than an color due to rod/cone ratio. (Rods account for black and white). So they see in black and white with slight color, such as a sepia picture- the brownish greyish hint to a black and white photo. Animals cannot see red, those cones are not found in animals, if 1 is found it is not enough to produce an effect against the millions of rods! Bulls charge at red but also anything else that is producing movement, and bulls are not color blind according to popular gossip- they do not have cones to see red. If any other color is detected from animals they will have a bluish yellowish tint.
Fish however do have a more equally proportionate ratio of rods/cones so they are able to see more colors more vividly than animals. This is why communicative color patterns on and between animals are so bright and distinguished: so that animals can see them and recognize them with their lack of cones that allow them to see more colors more vividly.
Some invertebrates can see in color, while others may have limited color vision or no color vision at all. The ability to see colors depends on the specific species of invertebrate and the presence of color-detecting cells in their eyes.
The expected phenotypic ratio for their offspring is 1:1, with a 50% chance of being color blind (male with the X-linked recessive trait) and a 50% chance of having normal color vision. This is because the daughter is a carrier of the recessive allele, which can be passed on to her offspring regardless of the father's color vision status.
Difficulty distinguishing colors, especially reds and greens, and may have poor vision in low light conditions. This condition is known as achromatopsia, where the individual sees the world mostly in shades of gray.
Yes, newborn babies are not color blind, but they do have limited color perception. They are born with immature color vision and can only see contrasts between light and dark colors. Over time, their color vision develops and improves.

Cheap color contact lenses can be used for fashion rather than vision purposes and can be found at Wal-Mart, K-Mart, Target, and professional eye care associates.
Yes, you can see color in your peripheral vision.
One can have a color vision test on the 'Color Vision Testing' website which tests for color blindness. One can also have a similar test at their local opticians.
No, those are mostly the functions of the rod cells. Cones are more for vision during the day, when you can see colours :)
Color vision problems affect victims because they are not able to see the perception of color. Color vision are not able to distinguish shades or there is a total inability to detect color.
Rod cells are mostly found in the periphery of the retina. These cells are responsible for vision in low light conditions and do not detect color but are sensitive to light intensity. They are more concentrated towards the outer edges of the retina, helping with peripheral vision.
Color vision deficient individuals can still dream in color, as color vision deficiency does not necessarily affect the ability to perceive colors in dreams. However, the colors perceived in dreams may vary depending on the individual's specific type of color vision deficiency.
Lab color spaces is closest to human vision. So, possible answer on your question can be: Lab color space simulates colors closest to human vision.
The function of the colored iris opens and closes to allow more or less light through a hole called the pupil. The lens then focus the light. There is no correlation between eye color and vision in the dark. This is primarily because it is the duty of the photoreceptors in the retina which project information into the brain. The photoreceptors responsible for light/dark vision are called rods and are mostly found on the periphery of the retina. Cones process color and are mostly found in the center of the retina called the fovea. To sum up - color has nothing to do with being able to see in the dark. Vision is dependent upon light and a complex set of structures in the eye and brain that work together to create your visual world. Color variation in the eye is purely genetic and holds not specific purpose for light/dark vision.
Color blindness is not continuous; rather, it exists as distinct types and degrees of color vision deficiencies. The most common forms, such as red-green color blindness, can vary in severity, but individuals either have a specific type of deficiency or do not. This means that while the manifestation of color blindness can differ among individuals, it does not represent a continuous spectrum but rather discrete categories of color perception.
Guinea pigs can see a range of colors, but they are believed to be most sensitive to green and blue shades. They have dichromatic vision, meaning they can see a limited spectrum of colors compared to humans. Their vision is best suited for detecting movement and shapes rather than colors.
Different animals have different kinds of color vision. Some have very poor color vision and others have very good color vision. In fact some birds and bees have super color vision and see colors that humans don't see.
