    Both the micrographic and schematic karyograms show the normal human diploid karyotype, which is the typical composition of the genome within a normal cell of the human body, and which contains 22 pairs of autosomal chromosomes and one pair of sex chromosomes (allosomes).

  5. CIE 1931 color space - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CIE_1931_color_space

    A color space maps a range of physically produced colors from mixed light, pigments, etc. to an objective description of color sensations registered in the human eye, typically in terms of tristimulus values, but not usually in the LMS color space defined by the spectral sensitivities of the cone cells. The tristimulus values associated with a ...

    Normalized responsivity spectra of human cone cells, S, M, and L types (SMJ data based on Stiles and Burch [1] RGB color-matching, linear scale, weighted for equal energy) [2] LMS (long, medium, short), is a color space which represents the response of the three types of cones of the human eye , named for their responsivity (sensitivity) peaks ...

  7. Colour centre - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colour_centre

    Cerebral achromatopsia occurs after injury to the lingual or fusiform gyrus, the areas associated with hV4. These injuries include physical trauma, stroke, and tumour growth. One of the primary initiatives to locating the colour centre in the visual cortex is to discover the cause and a possible treatment of cerebral achromatopsia.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISCC–NBS_system

    Each of the 267 ISCC–NBS categories is defined by one or more "blocks" within the color solid of the Munsell color system, where each block includes colors falling in a specific interval in hue, value, and chroma, resulting in a shape which "might be called a sector of a right cylindrical annulus (like a piece of pie with the point bitten off ...

  9. Munsell color system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Munsell_color_system

    The Munsell color system, showing: a circle of hues at value 5 chroma 6; the neutral values from 0 to 10; and the chromas of purple-blue (5PB) at value 5. In colorimetry , the Munsell color system is a color space that specifies colors based on three properties of color: hue (basic color), value ( lightness ), and chroma (color intensity).
