1.	How do we see colours?
Answer» with the help of rods and cones cell rods cell respondto intensity of light and enable to see in dim light and cañ`t distinguish different colours and cone cell it respond the color but in dim light enable to see In bright light the cone cell active and distinguish dffrnt colors We identify colors by using specialized cells in our eyes called cones. The retina contains cells called rods and cones, which are sensitive to different colors of light. In fact, we’re not really seeing the colors themselves, but the reflections of the object’s colors.According to Live Science, “when light hits an object – say, a banana – the object absorbs some of the light and reflects the rest of it. Which wavelengths are reflected or absorbed depends on the properties of the object. For a ripe banana, wavelengths of about 570 to 580 nanometers bounce back. These are wavelengths of yellow light.”
