Only 25 Percent Of The Population Can See All 39 Colours In This Chart

The test is a colour spectrum consisting of 39 unique colours. The number of hues a person can differentiate on the chart points to the amount of colour receptors, or cones, that person has.
If you see fewer than 20 colours, you, like a quarter of the population, are a dichromat, meaning you have two types of colour receptors.
Those who see between 20 and 32 colours — the majority of the population — are trichromats, with three different color receptors.
And those who see 32 to 39 colours (this is me!) have four types of cones in their eyes. They’re the tetrachromats, a group that makes up about a quarter of the population.
