About This Quiz

A good eyesight is something to be proud about. The eye uses light to achieve its function. And this is not a far cry in optical color assessment. If a viewer is able to perfectly sight two different colors placed side by side, then he is no sufferer of colour blindness. Do you know much about optics and colors?

    What painting method involve the use of small dots? - ProProfs

    What painting method involve the use of small dots?

    • Dry brushing

    • Shade

    • Glazing

    • Pointillism

    Correct Answer
    A. Pointillism
    Explanation
    Pointillism is a painting method that involves the use of small dots. It was developed by Georges Seurat and Paul Signac in the late 19th century. Instead of using brushstrokes, artists create images by applying small dots or strokes of pure color next to each other. When viewed from a distance, these dots blend together to create the illusion of different colors and shapes. Pointillism is known for its vibrant and luminous effects, and it is often associated with the Neo-Impressionist movement.

    Which of these is not used in optical color mixing? - ProProfs

    Which of these is not used in optical color mixing?

    • Colored pencils

    • Mallets

    • Brush

    • Pastel

    Correct Answer
    A. Mallets
    Explanation
    Mallets are not used in optical color mixing. Optical color mixing is a process where colors are mixed by overlapping or combining them optically, without actually physically mixing the pigments. It is commonly used in art and design, and tools such as colored pencils, brushes, and pastels are typically used to create optical color mixtures. However, mallets are not used in this process as they are primarily used for striking or pounding objects, not for creating color mixtures.

    What cell in the retina is responsible for color vision? - ProProfs

    What cell in the retina is responsible for color vision?

    • Optic cell

    • Rods

    • Cornea cells

    • Cones

    Correct Answer
    A. Cones
    Explanation
    Cones are the cells in the retina that are responsible for color vision. These cells are concentrated in the central part of the retina, known as the fovea, and are less sensitive to light compared to rods. Cones contain different pigments that allow them to detect different wavelengths of light, enabling us to perceive colors. In contrast, rods are responsible for vision in low light conditions but do not perceive color. Therefore, cones are the correct answer for the cell in the retina responsible for color vision.

    All of the following are classification of colors except? - ProProfs

    All of the following are classification of colors except?

    • Primary Color

    • Secondary Color

    • Intermediate Color

    • Optical Color

    Correct Answer
    A. Optical Color
    Explanation
    The classification of colors includes primary colors, secondary colors, and intermediate colors. However, optical color is not a classification of colors. This term refers to the perception of color as a result of the interaction between light and the human eye. It is not a distinct category of colors like primary, secondary, or intermediate colors.

    What part of the eye focuses the light? - ProProfs

    What part of the eye focuses the light?

    • Iris

    • Cornea

    • Retina

    • Lens

    Correct Answer
    A. Lens
    Explanation
    The lens is responsible for focusing light onto the retina. It is a transparent structure located behind the iris and the pupil. When light enters the eye, it passes through the cornea and then through the lens, which adjusts its shape to focus the light precisely onto the retina. This process allows for clear and sharp vision. The iris, on the other hand, controls the amount of light entering the eye by adjusting the size of the pupil. The retina is a layer of cells at the back of the eye that detects light and sends signals to the brain for visual processing.

    What is the science of colors called? - ProProfs

    What is the science of colors called?

    • Coloring

    • Color art

    • Calorimetry

    • Colorogy

    Correct Answer
    A. Calorimetry
    Explanation
    Calorimetry is the scientific study of measuring heat and energy transfer in chemical reactions. It is not directly related to the study of colors. Therefore, the answer "Calorimetry" is incorrect and does not align with the question asking for the science of colors.

    • Pale pinks with light grey

    • Mid-reds with mid-greens

    Correct Answer

    Which of the following is not a type of color blindness?

    • Trichomacy

    • Dichromacy

    • Tritoponia 

    • Protanopia

    Correct Answer
    A. Tritoponia 
    Explanation
    Tritoponia is not a type of color blindness. The correct term for this condition is tritanopia, which is the inability to perceive the color blue. Trichomacy refers to normal color vision, dichromacy is the presence of only two functioning cone cells for color vision, and protanopia is the absence of the red cone cells.

    Among sufferers of Tritanopes, what are the common colors often confused? - ProProfs

    Among sufferers of Tritanopes, what are the common colors often confused?

    • Orange

    • Dark purple

    • Mid-Green

    • Light blue

    Correct Answer
    A. Orange
    Explanation
    Tritanopes are individuals who have a specific type of color blindness, known as tritanopia. This condition affects the perception of blue and yellow colors. In tritanopia, the blue-yellow color channel is impaired, causing confusion between certain colors. The common colors that tritanopes often confuse are orange and light blue. Therefore, the correct answer is orange.
