Chameleons use their cell structure in their skin to change color. This does not mean that if you put a chameleon onto a red surface that it will change red in color. chameleons can only change a few different colours, mostly used dependant on the mood of the lizard. It does how ever try to blend in as much as possible. So to camouflage it's self it uses it's cells and chemical reactions in the skin to change the color in it's skin.
