Mixing equal amounts of a primary color with one of its adjacent secondary colors yields:

  1. Quaternary Colors

  2. Primary Colors

  3. Tertiary Colors

  4. Binary Colors

The correct answer is: Tertiary Colors

Mixing equal amounts of a primary color with one of its adjacent secondary colors will result in a tertiary color. This is because tertiary colors are created by combining equal amounts of a primary color with an adjacent secondary color. A quaternary color is created by mixing three primary or secondary colors, so it is not the correct answer in this scenario. Mixing a primary color with itself will result in the same color, so the answer cannot be B. Binary colors do not exist as a color category, so option D is incorrect. Therefore, C is the only logical and correct option.
