explain why images occur using the opponent-processing theory of color.

Afterimages are explained by the opponent processing theory as the result of the neutral color exhausting itself, so when these colors tire, their opponent colors show. For example if you look at a blue, red, and black flag and then look at a blank background you will see the afterimage of the opponent colors yellow, green, and white 

The three color pairs are blue and yellow, red and green, and black and white 

Are there any answer choices or is this an open ended question
