How does light affect the color of leaves?

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.

Chlorophyll in plants does not absorb green light as they reflect this color. That is why plants are, generally, green as they reflect green light and absorb other wavelengths of light.


Why plants look like green?

The color that something appears is related to the wavelengths of light that it absorbs. White light contains many different wavelengths. Different objects absorb different wavelengths contained in light. The color than an object appears to our eyes is actually determined by the wavelength of light in the visible spectrum that the object does not absorb. Instead the object reflects this light back at us.


When an object appears to be yellow what color of the spectrum is reflected?

Yellow light is made of primary colors red and green. Yellow objects absorb the blue light and reflect the red and green, so we see yellow. If I'm wearing a green shirt, the color reflected is Green. All others are obsorbed. Ta-da!
