2. Black and White vision is adequate for most purposes. Color vision is important in identifying ripeness, counteracting camouflage... Humans, Old World monkeys and apes each have 3 types of cones (3 iodopsins) providing the most elaborate color vision in the animal kingdom. COLOR VISION
3. Based on observation that any color of light can be attained by mixing various amounts of 3 colors of light. Proposed that humans have 3 kinds of photoreceptors that work together to give the sensation of hue. lights Photoreceptors: Trichromatic Theory of Color Vision
4. Due to in the color receptors (cones) in retina becoming "fatigued." When you then look a different background, the receptors that are tired do not work as well. Therefore, the information from all of the different color receptors is not in balance. Therefore, you see the color " afterimages." You can see that you vision quickly returns to normal.

7. Opponent Process Theory of Color Vision Based on idea that some colors don’t blend (e.g. reddish green), and on negative afterimages Trichromatic theory can’t explain these phenomena. lights Based on observation of negative afterimages .

9. 3 types of cones Note : All cones respond to a range of wavelengths, but their maximal response is at 440, 530, or 560 nm. This is determined by the type of iodopsin in the cone. 440 nm 530 nm 560 nm
10. Cone type Name Range Peak wavelength S Blue β 400–500 nm 420–440 nm M Green γ 450–630 nm 534–545 nm L Red ρ 500–700 nm 564–580 nm

18. 440 530 560 Red light “stimulates” red cone Red cone “inhibits” green/red ganglion cell cones signals red ganglion cells RETINAL COLOR CODING
19. 440 530 560 green light “stimulates” green cone green cone “stimulates” green/red ganglion cell cones signals green ganglion cells RETINAL COLOR CODING
20. 440 530 560 blue light “stimulates” blue cone blue cone “inhibits” yellow/blue ganglion cell cones signals blue ganglion cells RETINAL COLOR CODING
21. 440 530 560 yellow light “stimulates” red and green cones equally Red and green inputs to red/green cell cancel red and green sum to “ inhibit” blue/yellow cells cones ganglion cells signals yellow RETINAL COLOR CODING
