  2. I think its C .... spectrum is made of many DIFFERENT colors.
    Organimsms are made of many same cells, some cells are same as others and some cells are different. A poem is made of mant different verses, all verses are different from each other.

  6. SPECTRUM: broad range of related values or qualities or ideas or activities; an ordered array of the components of an emission or wave.

    SCALE: a series of notes differing in pitch according to a specific scheme (usually within an octave);

    Then a SPECTRUM is to COLOR what SCALE is to a TONE

    TONE: a notation representing the pitch and duration of a musical sound; a musical interval of two semitones; a steady sound without overtones; the distinctive property of a complex sound


    COLOR: among others: the timbre of a musical sound

    I think answer is A.

    I have a doubt anyway.
