Why does a flower look red?
basically, Things get colour by absorbing most light and reflecting only a certain part. So if you picture a rainbow, the red flower takes in all colours but red, so that is the only one you see.
When red ink is illumined by blue light is most of the light absorbed or reflected?
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.
What results when neither allele is dominant?
When neither allele is dominant, the trait that results depends on whether there is codominance or incomplete dominance. In codominance, that traits coded for by both alleles are expressed. For example, if R codes for red and r codes for white, a flower with the genotype Rr would be white with red spots/splotches/stripes/etc. (or red with white spots) - so it is showing both traits. In incomplete dominance - a mixture of the two traits is seen. For example, if R codes for red and r codes for white, a flower with the genotype Rr would be pink (a mixture of red a white).
If a homozygous red flower is crossed with a white flower what percentage of their offspring will red have?
Assuming that white is recessive to red in this case, then the off spring would all be red but they would be heterozygous red (Rr).
Does a pink flower have the same genotype as a white flower?
No it would not. It would depend on the type of plant, but let's say say a white flower has two recessive genes and a red plant had two dominant genes, a pink flower would have a dominant and recessive gene. This would be an example of incomplete dominance because the red gene does not completely overshadow the white gene
Georgia o'keefe's white and red flower white and red flower?
because she wanted the flower to look like spring stuff.
How would a red car look in white light?
White light does not alter the color of objects that it illuminates, hence, a red car would look red, in white light. White is the combination of all colors in reference to light. A Red Car is Red because it reflects the Red Wavelengths and absorbs the others.
What colour would a white surface look in red light?
A "white surface" is one that reflects all colors of light. That's why it looks white when a white light shines on it, and that's why you call it "white". If only red light shines on it, then it looks red.
A sheet of red paper will look black when illuminated with what light?
any light that's not red or white
What colour does a white ball look in red light?
It would appear to be red because it can only reflect the red light.
What colour is a white object under red light?

What would a red object look like shone onto a white light?
red
What colour does red paper look like when white light is shone on it?
It looks red.
If you look through a red filter at a sheet of white paper that is in white light what will you see?

When a red flower kept by green light it seems as?
A red flower viewed by green light will appear to be black.
What happens when white light reflects from a white paper?
The surface will look Red, because white reflects all colours and absorb none. If you hit a red light on, say, green then that would look black because green will absorb all the red but if it was a green light then it would look green. Every colour, except white, absorbs colours except itselves.
Does a red flower absorb red light?
No it reflects the red light, thats why we see it as red
