What colour will a yellow object look in red light and why?

It will look red. White light is made up of a spectrum of many colours. The primary colours are red, green and blue. An object (in white light) appears yellow because it reflects red and green light but absorbs blue light. In red light, the same object will simply reflect the red light. Since there is no green light, the object will appear red. (A mixture of red and green gives yellow)

Why does green look green in white light?

the white light has many colours in it. this is called the spectrum. as the plant is green, it absorbs all the colours except green. green reflects off the plant, into our eyes and we see a green plant. the same would work with any object that reflects its own colour and no more. white objects reflect all light and black objects reflect no light.
