Is it true that smooth objects absorb more light than rough objects?
No, in fact the opposite is true, however colour does play a significant part, as a matte black perfect sphere would absorb more light than a bumpy mirror
Why do light colors absorb less heat than dark colors?
Colors that appear light appear that way because they absorb less of the incident light, and reflect more of it to you.Colors that appear dark appear that way because they absorb more of the incident light, and reflect less of it to you.
Does white or black absorb the light?
Black absorbs light more.
Do smooth surfaces absorb a lot of light?
Not necessarily. Most often black, not smooth surfaces absorb more light. This most often why people in desert climates wear light or white clothing, to ensure they do not get hot in the already 100-degree Fahrenheit plus temperatures. To understand the answer more, let's look at a very reflective object. If the object acts like a mirror, but is very bumpy, the picture will be distorted but it still reflects the came amount of light. Finally, if the sun is shining right on you and you are wearing black clothing, you will most likely feel hot, even if the clothing is not entirely smooth. Hope this helped!
Do sunglasses absorb light?
Yes. All kind of sunglasses absorb some light. Some light is reflected too. Dark sunglasses absorb more than not so dark sunglasses.
What is a broadleaf adaptation?
It has broad leaves to help absorb more light for photosynthesis.
What is the role of cholorophyll in the biochemical pathways of photosynthesis?
cholorophyll is what produces the green pigment and allows the leaf to absorb more light, the only light leaves cant absorb is green light
Does the leaves help plants get the light they need?
No, generally lighter coloured leaves tolerate higher levels of sunlight; the extreme would be silver coloured leaves that reflect excess sunlight - as in the case of many desert plants. The general tendancy of plants is the lower the light level the darker green the leaf, more chlorophyll is produced to comensate for the lower light levels.

Why does celery with leaves absorb more water than celery without leaves?
most plants absorb more water through their leafs
In what parts of plants does photosynthesis take place?
In the leaves of the plant. The leaves absorb energy from the sun light to make the energy needed for the plants to produce their food. For more information you can use a botany book. Botany is the study of plants. In the leaves of the plant. The leaves absorb energy from the sun light to make the energy needed for the plants to produce their food.

Does sand live oak have smooth toothed or lobed leaves?
Sand oak (more commonly called "Bluejack Oak") has smooth edged, spearpoint-shaped leaves.
Why do plants on the forest floor have large leaves?
in the lower layers of the rainforest, there is little light because of the shadow caused by the canopy. this means the leaves need to be bigger to absorb more light to help them survive.
