A light source emits a pure, single wavelength of 560 nm. The human retina contains three types of color-sensitive cells, with peak sensitivities at approximately 455 nm (short-wavelength), 535 nm (medium-wavelength), and 580 nm (long-wavelength). Based on this information, which statement best describes how these cells would respond to the 560 nm light?
