you can see light and colour due to the specific cells on the retina of the eye. these cells are called rods and cones. Rod cells allow you to see in the dark but do not allow you to see colour hence why in the dark everything is black and white. the cone cells allow you to see colour by picking up different wavelengths of light. the amount of these cone cells picking up a certain wavelength for example a lot pick up a blue wavelength, then the more of the cone cells detect this, the darker the blue colour appears.
What else can I help you with?
What determines the color of light that we see?
The color of light that we see is determined by its wavelength. Different wavelengths of light correspond to different colors that we perceive.
What is the relationship between sound, light, and frequency?
Sound, light, and frequency are all forms of waves that can be measured in terms of frequency. Sound waves are vibrations in the air that we hear, while light waves are electromagnetic radiation that we see. Frequency is the number of waves that pass a point in a certain amount of time, and it determines the pitch of sound and the color of light. Sound and light waves can interact with each other, such as in the phenomenon of sound waves creating light in a process called sonoluminescence.
The quality in sound that corresponds to color in light is?
Timbre is the quality in sound that corresponds to color in light. Just as different colors in light can create different visual impressions, different timbres in sound create different auditory impressions.
When light hits an opaque object we see color that the object what?
The color we see is the result of the object absorbing certain wavelengths of light and reflecting others. The reflected light determines the color that reaches our eyes.
Why objects appear the color you see?
Objects appear a certain color because they absorb certain wavelengths of light and reflect others. The reflected light that is not absorbed enters our eyes and is processed by our brains as a specific color. The color we see is determined by the wavelengths of light that are reflected.
How do you see color objects?
you see coloured objects by the light. light makes the color of the object
What color is easiest to see in low light conditions?
The color that is easiest to see in low light conditions is yellow.
What color is the easiest to see in low light conditions?

What is happening when you see the color red?
When you see the color red, you are seeing red light reflect off of a surface. This means that any other color light that hits that object is absorbed into the surface. The exception to this is when you see red light, in that case you are seeing light that does not contain any other color of light.
When your retina is struck with with red light and green light what color do you see?
the color is purple
Do budgies see in ultraviolet light?
they can see in color.
The quality in sound that corresponds to color in light is?
Timbre is the quality in sound that corresponds to color in light. Just as different colors in light can create different visual impressions, different timbres in sound create different auditory impressions.
Why color objects s are the color they are?
The color is reflected by the light to your eyes. That is why you see color.
What's the color of visible light?
Visible light includes any color that the eye can see.
When light hits an opaque object we see color that the object what?
The color we see is the result of the object absorbing certain wavelengths of light and reflecting others. The reflected light determines the color that reaches our eyes.
