I’ve noticed throughout my life that red looks very different from green and blue, but when you look at spectral diagrams, red and green are very similar colors, while blue is quite distinct. Why does red look so unique in spite of the fact that it is similar to green and blue ought to be the one that looks very different?
In: Biology
Green is made from blue and yellow so it will look similar to blue, unlike red which is a primary color; you can’t combine any other colors to make red.
A lot of cultures have no distinction between blue and green, in fact! The Japanese word “ao” can mean blue and green.
