Explanation
The question asks for a way in which chemistry affects how you use a computer. Option B describes how the colors in a computer display are the result of substances that glow, which is a chemical process known as luminescence. This is the principle behind the functioning of a computer display. The other options (A, C, and D) are more related to other fields such as computer science, engineering, ergonomics, and human physiology, and they don't directly involve chemistry.
