White absorbs the least light. The "pigment" that causes the color white does not absorb any other colors, so all the colors are reflected back to you as "everything", or white. Think of white light. There are many colors hidden in white light, and by the process of refraction, white light can be separated and a rainbow of colors revealed. Black, on the other hand, is a pigment that absorbs all colors of light. Since no color is present, what you see is essentially a reflection of "nothing".
Anthocyanin is a pigment in some plants (like blueberries) that absorbs all other colors of light in the light spectrum and reflects blue light.
Red pigment allows for absorption of blue and green light. This kind of light penetrates further into the water so it allows them to photosynthesize even in the deeper parts of the ocean.

Unlike mixing pigment, which is an additive process, mixing light, such as stage and film light, is a cancellation process. Red, green, and blue are mixed to make white light.
When white light strikes a red object, the object would appear red. The object would have reflected the red light within the white light while all other colours would have been absorbed. When blue light strikes a red object, it would appear black as there is no red light in blue light as it is a primary colour. As a result, the blue light would be completely absorbed by the red object. So no light would be reflected from the object. When violet light strikes a red object, it would appear red, as violet is a combination of blue and red light. The blue light would be absorbed while the red light would be reflected. It is good to learn and revise the light spectrum and primary and secondary light colours. Primary light colours are: Red, Green and Blue Secondary light colours are: Yellow, Cyan and Violet The combinations are: Red + Green = Yellow Green + Blue = Cyan Blue + Red = Violet (or Magenta depending on how you have been taught)

wall eye is usually caused by a lack of pigment in the eye, causing it to look white or light blue.
That would be pale blue. Adding white pigment to any color lightens the color.
primary light colors are the mixed of red green and blue and pigment is solid colors

Absorbed. Your red ink will look black. "Red" is a long wave-length color. "Blue" is a short one. What looks red in white light is a pigment that reflects red. It won't reflect blue, so it will look dark.

Pink is the mixture of red and blue LIGHT. Purple is the mix of red and blue PIGMENT.
