Solution

The correct option is B

Red, Green, Indigo


The spectrum of white light is a combination of violet, indigo, blue, green, yellow, orange and red (VIBGYOR). Among these 7 colours, red has the largest wavelength and violet has the smallest wavelength.
Hence, the correct order in terms of decreasing wavelength is red, green, indigo
