Colours.
Forums › General Discussion › Colours.-
My little brother is colorblind, and it took us a while to figure it out because when he'd call a bear green, we'd just correct him and say it's brown. We just assumed he was just mixing up his colors (he was about 3 at he time). My mom actually figured out something was wrong when she was playing a game called Blink with him (it's similar to UNO, but with symbols rather than numbers) and he kept laying down greens on top of browns and vice versa.
They tested him at the eye doctors' and figured out that he is indeed colorblind. He gets browns and greens mixed up, sees yellow the brightest (so anything bright green or orange looks like yellow to him. He once got into a little disagreement with his cousin because he thought Shrek was yellow, and in a pile of random stuff, he says even the little tiny yellow objects stand out to him), and really light and really dark colors are hard for him to distinguish.

And also, Brown Note helped my belief that we see the see color the same. Color is not a property of the object, it is a property of the electromagnetic spectrum and we see only a small partition of that spectrum, the part of it we can see called 'visible light'. The wavelengths throughout this spectrum are always the same so only the eye and brain could change it. Eye misrecieves it and/or the brain changes it but as I said, we are all 99% genetically the same so there is a very, very small chance of us seeing it differently compared to one another. The brain and eye rarely develop differently, mutations in the brain, eye and nerves are almost impossible in nature since it has been made to stop most mutations or under development in the body.

Sorry to go of-topic but
Someone said that the universe is simple. Correct me if I'm wrong please.Simple answer - no, it's not.
Explained answer;
Let's just start out by saying that there's more galaxy's and stars than there is grains of sand, this can be backed up by a picture from the Hubble ultra deep field image telescope. This photo alone contains around 5-15 thousand galaxy's, But this picture is the "observable region" simple enough yet? Not quite.The universe is expanding at an exponential rate. I'll finish later, really busy.

That's crazyI found this interesting anyway. I hope at least one of you guys enjoy this or whatever!
Maybe someone could tell me whether it's an offical theory? -
I am color blind red and green so i do probably see them differently.

Interestingly, women cannot be colorblind, as they have a latent 4th cone, to compensate for the colorblind one. Among women who are not colorblind, a tiny handful have the ability to perceive 100 million shades, 100 times as much as us normies. I have only read of one such documented case, but this was only discovered within the past 2 years, so it is unknown how many are out there. They would never know they could perceive so many colors, as it is all they have ever known.

Actually they do. They're based on which part of the light spectrum an object reflects. A blue object absorbs all light except blue. Likewise red and so on.I've often wondered this, but it's not like colours exist obvectively anyway, they're just the way the brain interprets different wavelengths.

FALSE!!! A woman can be colorblind, but only if her father is colorblind and her mother carries the genes for colorblindness. Since it's an X chromosome mutation, usually the other X chromosome in women will take over and correct any problems with the first X chromosome, but if the mom's X has the genes for colorblindness too, then there's no normal X to fix it. This results in a colorblind female.Interestingly, women cannot be colorblind, as they have a latent 4th cone, to compensate for the colorblind one.
