Color blindness and color afterimages are best explained by what theory of color vision?

(A) trichromatic theory
(B) visible hue theory
(C) opponent-process theory
(D) dichromatic theory
(E) binocular disparity theory

Answer
(C) opponent-process theory

Spoiler
Explanation
The opponent-process theory explains these two phenomena, which the trichromatic theory cannot do. Visible hue is not a color vision theory. Dichromatic is a type of color blindness, not a theory of color vision. Binocular disparity is a depth cue.
