In cells, chlorophyll is particularly important.
Chlorophyll looks green to us because it reflects a lot of green light, absorbing relatively little. The longer (red) wavelengths and shorter (blue) ones are better absorbed, and it is these wavelengths that are used predominantly by a plant for photosynthesis.
There are several types of chlorophyll, as well as other light-absorbing pigments such as carotenoids which are red, orange, or yellow. When chlorophyll breaks down in the fall, these other pigments become visible, giving the variety of leaf colors that you see on deciduous trees in that season.

Yellow

it would appear to be blue, because that is the color it is reflecting
yellow and green
i think ''carotenoid'' :D
If an object absorbs all the colors of light, it will appear to be black. It is the reflected part of the spectrum that gives an object its color.
No. If the object absorbs that color, then there's none left to travelfrom there to your eyes, is there !The color you see is the light that the object couldn'tabsorb, so itbounced from the object to your eyes.
An object looks black whenever it absorbs all 7 colors of the visible spectrum. We can only see it with a color if that color is being reflected from it. Because the object absorbs all colors, it reflects none of them, so we do not see any color, and therefore we see the object as black.
A black object absorbs light- black is actually an ABSENCE of light. White, on the other hand, REFLECTS all colors- which, when blended, produces white.
Since an object is observed as the color(s) it reflects, a green object absorbs all colors and reflects green.

the color of the light it reflects and absorbs. If the object reflects red and absorbs all other colors, the object will appear red.

i think its black or white

Color is produced by the reflection of lights. If you have a blue object, it is reflecting blue light and is absorbing all other colors. A white object absorbs all colors and a black object reflects all.
If an object absorbs all the colors in white light, it reflects black.
Since an object is observed as the color(s) it reflects, a green object absorbs all colors and reflects green.
If it absorbs ALL the colors, then it will be white (maybe also black). If light doesn't hit the object, it will be black.
The color that we see is not the color of the object in question, but the color of the light it reflects. This means that a "green object" absorbs all colors of the visible spectrum except for green light, which it reflects back to our eyes. White light is the combination of the entire visible spectrum combined. Thus a "white object" reflects all colors of light. On the opposite side of this question, a "black object" absorbs all colors of light, because "black" is the absence of color.
