Hello, everyone and welcome to today's video. So when red light and green lights are mixed together and viewed by the human eye, what color is perceived as answer choice? A? We have red B, we have green C, we have yellow and D we have C N. Now when we have these red light and green light being mixed together, they're going to stimulate the red and green color receptors in the human eye and these color receptors when they come together are going to create the perception of yellow, which is known as additive color mixing. So yellow is the color that we're going to be perceiving. Therefore, the correct answer for this question is going to be C yellow. I really hope this helped and I hope to see you on the next one.
