Evolution of human colour vision opsins was increasing from 400 to 430. During this time, Ancestral Boreotherian had two long wave length opsins created by gene duplication, with one retaining the absolute max value of 560, equal to the ancestral value. This led to the creation of the modern human long wavelength sensitive, or red opsin. The other short wavelength sensitive opsin decreased its absolute max value to 530 and became the middle wavelength sensitive, or green-sensitive opsin. This occurred through mutations involving S180A, Y277F and T285A. The order that these mutations took place in the ancestral Boreotheria is currently not fully known. It is
Trooping the Colour (and, once they have collected their colour during the ceremony, as 'Escort to the Colour'). At the outset, the colour is held by the Colour Party - a colour sergeant and two other guardsmen of No. 1 Guards, standing well-spaced on the northern side of Horse Guards Parade. Once obtained by the Regimental Sergeant Major of No. 1 Guard, the colour is borne through the ranks of Nos 2-6 Guards by an Ensign of No. 1 Guard. It is a great honour for a young officer to carry the colour in this ceremony, as historically only the most courageous Ensigns
