Thank you for the responses. I did indeed get confused by
the statement "blue, cyan, green, yellow and magenta are
NOT seen in the rainbow" because, for some reason, I only
saw the answer, not the question.
I still have a question about "yellow is a mixture of
green and red light". I agree that the perception
of yellow CAN BE a mixture of green and red light but
couldn't yellow also be "just yellow" (i.e., a single
frequency that excites the red/green cones in just
the right way for us to perceive yellow)?
