What is the difference between shadow and reflection?
A shadow is light being blocked by an object, reflection is light "bouncing" back off an object's surface.
Which Substance from the light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis is the soure of energy for the Calvin cycle?
NADPH
Did light have shadow?
light did not had shadow and will not have shadow.
Is a light bulb a soure of light?
Yes, a light bulb is a source of light. When current is going through the filament the resistance generates enough heat that the filament glows, producing light.
What can you tell from looking at a shadow?
Changes in shadow tell us where the source of light is. If you are outside, you only have one shadow because the sun is casting it. But if you have multiple shadows, then there are multiple sources of light to cast the shadows.
How can a shadow be reflected?
It is actually impossible to reflect a shadow, as a shadow is merely an absence of light. However, what IS reflected is the light surrounding the shadow. When this light is reflected, it forms a reflected image of the light's shape, complete with a lack of light, or shadow. In this way, it can look like a shadow is reflected.

Does the light of the moon cause a physical shadow?
A shadow is caused when there is less light or no light in an area. An object can block the light and thereby cause a shadow. If the light reflecting off the moon is a source of light, objects blocking this light can cause a shadow.
Is light similar to a shadow?
No, light is a form of energy and the shadow is the place where there is absence of light.
Why is a shadow always on the opposite side of the light source?
Your shadow will fall in the direction opposite the source of light - with you between the light source and the shadow. The direction of your shadow relative to you will depend on what direction you are facing.If you are facing toward the light source, the shadow will be behind you.If you are facing away from the light source, it will be in front of you.If you have the light source to your right, the shadow will be to your left.If you have the light source to your left, the shadow will be to your right.If the light source is directly above you, the shadow will be directly under you.If you move past a light source, your shadow will move from behind you to beside you and then to in front of you.
How does the distance from a light change the size of the objects shadow?
The answer is simply a matter of angle and perspective. When the light source is close to the item causing the shadow, the angle that the item covers is much wider, thus casting a larger shadow. As the light source moves back from the item, the perspective changes and the angle that the item covers is much less, thus reducing the size of the shadow.
