LCD - LCD is also known as Liquid Crystal Display. LCD displays use light to display the image onto a screen, they do not emit light themselves. They require lights behind them for them to display the pixels onto the screen. The good thing about LCD displays is that they use much less power than other screen types which makes them ideal for things like laptops and mobile devices which require charging.
Color Displays - Color monitors for desktop computers are based on CRTs or back-lit screen technology. Most displays use the RGB additive color model, the RGB model is called additive because of the combination of 3 pure colors which add up to the white light. The operating system sorts the display out into a X and Y grid, this is similar to a checker board, each of these boxes are called pixels.
Monochrome - The word Monochrome means one color. This means the image will only contain one color bur this image could contain many shades of this color. When it comes to computing "monochrome " normally refers to a two tone image instead of an image with several shades of one color. Before color monitors became standard most of the computers used to have monochrome monitors, these displays only showed 2 colors. One color for the back ground and another for the text.
