The eye is not sensitive to different colors in the same way. The greater sensitivity to red, slightly lower than for green, while only around 10% of all confidential and sensitive to blue. This is why the yellow (sum of green and red) is the color that seems brighter and the blue light never reaches a comparable and it seems increasingly gloomy.
The primary colors are red, green and blue (RGB Abbreviation for ").
These are contrasted with the secondary or complementary yellow, cyan, and magenta (the English acronym CYM).

subtractive synthesis: the secondary colors, also known as subtractive, are used in printing. In the paper inks reflect light rather than emit it, keeping the colors from the light incident on a selective basis and making a sort of subtracting the white light.
The best example of the synthesis of color has been applied by the artists dots. Here is a
