Solution

The correct option is A Red and green
Colour blindness is of three types, the different anomalous conditions are:
  • Protanomaly, which is a reduced sensitivity to red light,
  • Deuteranomaly which is a reduced sensitivity to green light and is the most common form of colour blindness
  • Tritanomaly which is a reduced sensitivity to blue light and is extremely rare.
Hence, a colour blind person cannot distinguish red and green (blue light is extremely rare)
So, the correct answer is 'Red and green'.
