Color is important in "The Giver" because it represents the experiences and emotions that have been suppressed in the community. By eliminating color, the society suppresses individuality, diversity, and emotions. The reintroduction of color symbolizes the return of those qualities and the awakening of the characters to a fuller, more meaningful existence.
In The Giver, all the people of the community are color blind, but since Jonas is The Giver, he can see colors. What happened to the apple was that he was able to see the color red.
The receiver
In "The Giver" society, color is absent as a way to control and manipulate people's emotions. This lack of color contributes to a sense of conformity and suppression of individuality. The protagonist, Jonas, learns about color when he receives memories from the Giver, leading him to question the society's strict rules.
In "The Giver," Jonas witnessed the phenomenon of color when the Giver showed him an apple and the color red. The Giver explained that before the community became "Sameness," people could see colors, but over time, they chose to eliminate them to create a more controlled society. Seeing the color red opened Jonas's eyes to the possibilities beyond what he had known.
Jonas learns what color is because the first day he talks to the givier and he tells him that it is color.
In a community with no love, color, or music.
The most important elder in "The Giver" is the Receiver of Memory, who at the time of the story is the character known as The Giver. He holds the memories of the past and advises the community's leaders.

Do you mean will he ever be able to see color? If that is your question, then yes. The Giver passes the memory of Rainbow to Jonas, so that he can receive all the different colors.
Jonas can only see the color red in "The Giver" because his society has chosen to eliminate color as a way of maintaining control and conformity. As he receives memories from the Giver, he begins to see color for the first time and realizes the beauty and depth it brings to the world.
They are the same because they have no memories, there is no color, and verything they do is controlled
