The correct statement regarding the relationship between photon energy and the color of light is:
**Red photons have the least amount of energy.**
In the visible spectrum, colors range from red, which has the longest wavelength and lowest energy, to violet, which has the shortest wavelength and highest energy. Therefore, as you move from red to violet, the energy of the photons increases.
