When mixing paint (subtractive) red and green gives a brown color. When red and green light are combined (additive, e.g., using diodes) a yellow color is seen.
The world has color, because light is made up of: green, blue, and red light. Certain amounts of of all thode colors are reflected and you see what the object reflects.
Seeing as grass is green, PETANDPEZ would have to say that the colour reflected is green. However, when you see BROWN grass, green light is still being reflected only at a much lower intensity.
Green
the color is purple
White light. The colors that we see are actually the colors NOT absorbed by the object they strike: for example, if the sun's light strikes a pink triangle, it is because the triangle absorbs all the frequencies of light EXCEPT for the color pink. If the only color we see is green reflected off a car, then all wavelengths of color are absorbed except for green.
You see the color black.
When light goes through a spectrum, the waves are split into different colors, or spectra. The colors are red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and violet. That way, you can distinguish what type of light or element is is by counting the number of each type of color.
Yellow light is made of primary colors red and green. Yellow objects absorb the blue light and reflect the red and green, so we see yellow. If I'm wearing a green shirt, the color reflected is Green. All others are obsorbed. Ta-da!
Because colors are absorbed the color reflected of is the color we see. For example apples are red every other color is absorbed but red is reflected off the apple.
Black is absorbed! White is reflected. :)
green the pigments absorb every color in the light spectrum but green.

White light would be universal, but if you had to choose a color, and the color of the plant is green, then green light would not help it photosynthesize the easiest, because green light is reflected from these plants. Just like red light would be reflected from red plants, it probably wouldn't be the best to use
Yes, squirrels do see in color. However, they can not distinguish between red and green, similar to red-green color blindness in humans.

Different plants absorb different colors. Even different parts of plants absorb different colors. The color you see the plant as is the color being reflected rather than absorbed by the plant.
Commonly red and green
