The millions of photoreceptor on the cones allow our eyes to depict color. There are two theories as to how we can see color the trichromatic theory that says we only see Red-Green-Blue and they blend to make the other colors. The other theory is called the opponent process theory which explains that some colors can not be seen over others (black-white, red-green, blue-yellow).
