Which is the correct difference between hue and value?

Correct answer: Hue identifies or names a colour, whereas value indicates its lightness or darkness.

Correct answer: A. Hue means the basic colour identity or colour family, such as red, yellow, green, or blue. Value means the degree of lightness or darkness within that colour. For example, pale blue and navy blue share the same hue family, blue, but their values are different. A is correct because it separates colour identity from lightness or darkness. B is wrong because smoothness and roughness describe texture; brightness can be related to value, but the definition of hue given there is incorrect. C is wrong because arrangement refers more to colour relationships or composition, while shape concerns the outline or two-dimensional form of an object. D is wrong because texture concerns surface quality, not hue and value. Memory cue: the colour name is hue; the light-or-dark scale is value.
