What gives a plant is green color?
When chlorophyll absorbs light, it aborbs all colors except green. Green light is reflected as the green color seen in leaves.
Why is it that not all the light that strikes the leaves of a plant is stored as chemical energy?
because they reflect green light
Why are leaves of plants appear green because chlorophyll?
All pigments in leaves are capable of absorbing the different colours that makes up white light except the green colour, which is reflected, hence, we see green.
What color doesn't chlorophyll absorb?
The color of anything is either the color of the light that is reflected from it, or the light that is transmitted through it. The other colors in white light are absorbed. So, since we see leaves as green whether in reflected light or when light shines through them, green is the color which is NOT absorbed.
What happens when you mix green and blue light?
Cyan light results. Green and blue and red lights are all primary colors of light. Because red is not part of cyan light, cyan and red light are complementary colors.
What happens when light shines on green paper?
a green object it will reflect a green light and will absorb all other colours.

What reflected by a plant to give it a green color?
When chlorophyll absorbs light, it aborbs all colors except green. Green light is reflected as the green color seen in leaves.
Why is it that not all the light that strikes the leaves of a plant is stored as chemical energy?
because they reflect green light
When light strikes a green leaf how does this explain why leaves appear green?
Light that is white contains all the colours. When the light hits the leaf, it absorbs all the colours apart from the green light which is reflected back out to your eyes. So you see the leaf as green.
When a white light shines on a green apple what happens?
The apple skin absorbs all of the wavelengths in the light EXCEPT the green ones.
Why are leaves of plants appear green because chlorophyll?
All pigments in leaves are capable of absorbing the different colours that makes up white light except the green colour, which is reflected, hence, we see green.
What happens when you pass a green filter through light?
the light turns green because all the other colours of the spectrum are absorbed while the green is reflected
Why doesn't green light promote photosynthesis?
Green light does not promote photosynthesis because it is reflected off of a plants leaves. While most plants absorb all other wavelengths of electromagnetic rays from the sun, they reflect the wavelength for green light.
Why are leaves greens?
Leaves are green because the cells form which they are made contain structures called chloroplasts which are filled with a green coloured chemical called chlorophyll. Chlorophyll absorbs all the light which is not green and uses the energy in this light to make sugars. Thus the green leaves of plants make the food that plants need to grow (and which animals get when they eat plants).
What happens when light hits green grass?
When light hits green grass all the constituent colours of light l gets absorped ini it but the green colour cannot be absorbed thus the green grass reflects it
What happens to light when it hits a coloured object?
It can be either reflected or absorbed. E.g. if the object is green, all the colours of light are absorbed except green. Green is reflected and not absorbed.
