  1. OH MY GOSH.

    Me and my friend were talking about this the other day!

    I'm NOT kidding!

    We couldn't come to a decision!

    We thought that maybe we all did, because of the way light reflects off of the objects, and how our pupils accept that light.


  2. YES ONLY WITH HUMANS---THE 1 WHICH U FIND RED IS THE SAME TO ME BUT ANIMALS DONT

  3. Yes it the colour of any oblect appears the same to everyone of the same species if they have a proper vision. But it is not so when you are colour blind.

  4. Humans with normal colour vision will all see the same colours exactly the same. The proof of this may be obtained using three-colour dye matching optical devices known as ‘tint meters’. Using a device such as a ‘tint meter’, a technician with normal colour vision may match a chosen colour ((say) a blue green dye) against the combined optical sum of three coloured filters (normally, hues of red, blue, and green). Normal colour vision results in the same filter settings for a given colour when using the ‘tint meter’, whoever makes the measurement.

    However, people with colour blindness or other ocular genetic problems do not necessarily see colours the same way that people with ‘normal’ colour vision do!

  5. no,

    the normal persons will view the same  but

    the colours will be viewed differentky if the person is colourblind

  6. No

  7. Everyone...??? What if a person is suffering from COLOUR BLINDNESS...!!!

  8. It depends on what you mean. Everyone who has "normal" vision sees the same colors the same way. The human eye is filled with visual receptors, known as cones and rods. Cones are responsible for color vision and are tightly packed around the fovea (this is the area of the eye that allows for the most acuity when seeing an image. The light that falls on the outside of the fovea appears blurry.  This is why peripheral vision is more blurry). Rods are responsible for night vision and are found more around the periphery of your vision. People with healthy vision have three types of cones which respond to different color wavelengths and so are responsible for "seeing" different colors. Taken together, they form color vision. People who are color blind may be lacking one type of cone and so they are incapable of seeing a certain color.  So they may see two colors to look the same.  But generally speaking, everyone sees colors in mostly the same way.

  9. The light receptors called cones located in the retina of the eye   are largely responsible for our color vision.  

    Cones come in three types each sensitive to certain range of wavelengths of light.

    Since the chemical pigment present in the cones will always have the same physical properties, persons having the same types of cones will perceive the same color.

    After all it is the “perception” and hence must be the same for same color pigments.

    However the intensity of perception may differ from person to person .


  10. No . Test for this is colour blindness.

  11. no. even to two people with perfect vision they can appear different. lets say one is moving towards a giant light at .5c, and another person is moving away from it at .5c. the person moving towards the light sees the light shift towards the blue end of the spectrum. the person moving away sees it shift towards the red end of the spectrum.

  12. this may depend from human to human because of the rod and the cone cells present in our eye these may respond in a way for a particular eye
