Why can an orange object stand out on a blue background?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Blue and orange create complementary contrast
The governing concept is complementary colour contrast. On a conventional colour wheel, blue and orange lie opposite one another, so their difference in hue is strong. When an orange object is placed against a blue background, the boundary becomes noticeable and the object gains visual emphasis. Option A is correct; the other choices incorrectly call them identical, invisible, or neutral colours.
