Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The fact that each of the three cone photopigments responds best to different wavelengths of light supports the trichromatic theory. This theory proposes that color vision is based on the combination of signals from three types of cones that are sensitive to different wavelengths of light - short, medium, and long wavelengths. The brain then processes these signals to produce the perception of all the colors in the visible spectrum.
