Okay kiddo, let me explain color perception to you like you are five years old. You see, color perception is how we see and identify different colors.
You know how when you look at a red apple or a green leaf, you see them as different colors? Well, that's because of color perception. Our eyes have special cells called cones that help us to see colors.
There are three types of cones in our eyes that help us to see different colors: red, green, and blue. These cones work together to create all the colors that we can see.
But did you know that not everyone sees colors the same way? Some people have a condition called color blindness, which means they can't see certain colors or they see them differently than most people.
For example, someone with red-green color blindness might have trouble telling the difference between red and green colors.
So, color perception is how our eyes and brain work together to help us see and identify all the different colors around us. Pretty cool, huh?
