The three physical characteristics of color include which of the following combinations?

Saturation, brightness, and glare
Hue, saturation, and brightness
Reflective index, spectral range, and hue
Tone, shade, and hue

The correct answer is: Hue, saturation, and brightness

The correct choice highlights the three essential physical characteristics of color: hue, saturation, and brightness. Hue refers to the actual color itself, such as red, blue, or green, which defines the general type of the color. Saturation describes the intensity or purity of the color, indicating how vivid or muted it appears. A highly saturated color looks more vibrant, while a less saturated color appears more washed out or grayish. Brightness, on the other hand, indicates how light or dark a color is, affecting its overall luminosity. The combination of these three characteristics provides a comprehensive understanding of color perception, making it crucial for visual testing and color representation. This foundational knowledge helps in various applications, including design, photography, and any field where color accuracy is vital.
