TIERRA DEL FUEGO. WEATHER AND CLIMATE. In spite of its incendiary name, Tierra del Fuego -as well as the rest of Patagonia- has low temperatures and strong winds, sudden changes of weather, going from strong winds to complete calm, or from sunny to rainy conditions being very common.
Theories of Color Vision. 1  In 1802, Thomas Young proposed that all human vision occurred through the combination of sensitivity to red, green, and blue. This theory, modified by Hermann von Helmholtz in 1852, came to be known as the Young-Helmholtz or trichromatic (three-color) theory of color vision.
Human and rat retinas have two types of light receptors: cones are sensitive to bright light and color, and rods are sensitive to dim light and cannot see color. Human and rat retinas differ, however, in the types and density of cones in the retina, which has implications for color vision.
