Primary colors.

Primary colors are the colors into
which white hight is separated by the
dispersion Of a prism. Those named
by Newton are red. orange. yellow.
green, blue, indigo and violet. Art
lists reduce these to three-red. yellow
and blue. Scientists generally con-
slider red, green and blue to represent
the primary color sensations. and In
one theory there are supposed to be
three sets Of nerves in the retina
which can respond to these three COL
ors. The idea Of three primary colors
Is that from the combination Of these
three all hues may be produced which
are to be found in white light.
