Absorption
The property that light always travels in straight lines.
When the light waves strikes an object and bounces off
When light enters a different medium, the amount that the light is bent as it enters the medium is determined by the medium's index of..........=refraction
If the light enters the prism at an angle the light will bend. The amount the light will bend depends on its wavelength. Each wavelength is bent a different amount effectively splitting the light into its constituent wavelengths. Visible light (390 - 750 nm) will split into a rainbow. see link below
When the light ray strikes the surface of the prism, both when it enters and when it leaves, it bends owing to the different in the speeds of light in air and the material of which the prism is made. The amount of bending depends in part on the frequency of the light which is related to the colour of the light, hence the appearance of a colour spectrum which can be seen from a triangular prism.
refraction
The property that light always travels in straight lines.
As light enters the eye, it strikes the receptor cells of the retina, called the rods and cones.
The property that when it enters your eye, you know it.
Light is diffracted and diffused as it enters the lens. Because the lens is not perfectly clear, some light is reflected. As the light strikes the sensor, it is absorbed and converted into electronic information.
light strikes the chloroplast.
