It relates to the number of colors simultaneously shown
That "third dimension" is the bit-depth, or how many colors can be displayed simultaneously on the screen at that resolution.
- x8 = 8 bits or 256 colors
- x16 = 16 bits or 65536 colors (also called "65k" or "high color")
- x24 = 24 bits or 16777216 colors (also called "16.7 million" or "true color")
- x32 = 32 bits or 4294967296 colors, or sometimes the same as 24-bits with 8 bits used for opacity/transparency (called "alpha")

A traditional partition table like yours can have maximum of four primary partition. That means you can't have more than four drive. Concept of extended partition solves this problem.
An extended partition is a special type of partition that can hold multiple logical partitions. It's is like a container/wrapper of all logical partitions. Inside an extended partition you can create many logical partitions (this solves the maximum number of drives limitation).
Primary partitions are generally used for installation of operating systems. However, logical partitions can also be used (for eg. your Ubuntu is installed on an extended partition)
In your hard disk you have three primary partitions :
In a word, your partition table is 100% alright. :)
