Trichromacy is a color vision phenomenon in which an organism perceives colors through the combination of three different types of photoreceptor cells, typically known as cones, in the retina. In humans, these three types of cones are sensitive to different ranges of wavelengths corresponding to blue, green, and red light. The brain processes the signals from these cones and combines them to create the perception of a wide spectrum of colors.
