They do, to a small extent, but they transmit most of it.
Objects that reflect light are said to be "reflective", objects that scatter light are said to be "diffusive", and objects that transmit light are said to be "transparent" or "translucent".
No, transparent objects allow light to pass through them without significant absorption. Instead of absorbing light, transparent objects transmit, reflect, or refract light, depending on their properties and the angle of incidence of the incoming light.
Transparent objects allow light to pass through them without significant absorption. They reflect a small amount of light at their surfaces due to differences in refractive index but primarily refract light as it passes through.
Transparent objects allow light to pass through them, so they generally do not reflect or absorb much light. Some light may be reflected or absorbed depending on the material and surface properties of the transparent object.
No, opaque objects do not transmit light. They absorb or reflect light, making them not transparent or translucent.

No, a transparent object would totally transmit all light through it. However there are no transparent objects, and objects which we think of as being transparent are in fact translucent. All objects absorb at least some light. Glass for instance will transmit about 90% or so of visible light and reflect the rest. A transparent object will invariably have edges. Those edges are typically polished to facilitate transmission. A polished surface will always reflect some light.

No, opaque objects do not transmit light. They absorb or reflect light, making them not transparent or translucent.
Transparent objects allow light to pass through them without being scattered, absorbed, or reflected significantly. This occurs because the atoms in the material do not interrupt the light's path, maintaining the object's transparency and allowing objects on the other side to be visible.
transparent and translucent objects are the objects that let the light pass through them eg glass, but sometimes translucent objects are colorful so they change the color of the light as it passes through them opaque objects can either absorb the light, like dark material, or reflect, like a mirror.
an objects light can pass through is transparent
Reflect. Light-colored objects reflect heat and light, while dark-colored objects absorb heat and light.
Transparent objects allow light to pass through without scattering, such as glass. Opaque objects absorb or reflect light, preventing it from passing through, like wood. Translucent objects scatter light as it passes through, leading to a diffused appearance, such as frosted glass.
No, all objects reflect light to some degree, both shiny and non-shiny. Shiny objects tend to reflect more light due to their smooth and polished surfaces, while non-shiny objects may reflect less light and appear duller because of their rough or textured surfaces.
