How does the wavelength of maximum absorbance relate to the color of a substance?
The wavelength of maximum absorbence relates to the color, because the only color that is not absorbed will be the color of the item. For example, plants are green because they absorb red and blue light, and reflect green light.
How do color combinations make one color?
Every color that the human eye can detect are all made of three Primary colors ( Yellow, Red, and Blue ). We can mix these Primary colors to get all the different variations we can observe in the visible light spectrum. If you've ever seen a prism or a rainbow then you've seen the process of refraction. Color originates in light. Sunlight, as we perceive it, is colorless. In reality, a rainbow is testimony to the fact that all the colors of the spectrum are present in white light. An example is if you were to look at an apple. All the "invisible" colors of sunlight shine on the apple. The surface of a red apple absorbs all the colored light rays, except for those corresponding to red, and reflects this color to the human eye. The eye receives the reflected red light and sends a message to the brain. This process works the same for every color that we see.

Why does an orange look orange and and an apple look red?
The colors that we call orange or red are particular frequencies of visible light. An object that reflects mostly the light in a particular frequency will "look" that color. It is the compounds in the skins of fruits that absorb and reflect light in different frequencies, In the case of the apple, the compounds inside the skin absorb a completely different range of frequencies, and are therefore a different color.* Objects that absorb almost all colors of light appear brown or black. Those that absorb little light of any frequency appear white.
What would happen if you shone a bright red light on a green apple?
Since the apple is green, it would absorb any light that is not the same color as the apple. In this instance, the apple would appear very dark or even black since there is no green in the red light you are shining on the apple. A popular science experiment involves a shoe box, a piece of colored plastic or glass, a few objects (such as the apple), and a flashlight. If a red apple is being used with a red filter, the apple would appear to be a bright red since the apple is also red. The red filter allows the red color being reflected off the apple to pass through. Switch the filter to a green one, and the apple appears black since the filter effectively filters out all colors except green.
