What objects are made up of all the colors of the rainbow?

Every thing. some objects reflect some colors(the colors that we see) and absorb all others(the ones we don't see). the colors that are reflected and blend to make all the different colors.


What colors do white objects absorb?

White is the resultant of all colors being reflected. White objects of course absorb some light but due reflect all the colors of the rainbow as we see them.


Are harvester ants color blind?

Ants are not color blind. They may not be able to see colors as sharply as humans, but see the colors of objects.


What causes the apparent colors of the objects we see?

What we perceive as color is specific wavelengths of light. Objects either emit or reflect light. Again depending on which wavelengths are either emitted or reflected is the color(s) we see. In emitted colors, a given source emits light. If all wavelengths are emitted then what we see is white. The object may emit specific wavelengths of light or it may use some sort of filter that allows only specific wavelengths to pass through and blocks all others. In reflected colors. the object or pigments of or on an object absorb all light wavelengths except certain ones. Those that are not trapped and are reflected or refracted back (as in the case of rainbows) we perceive as color(s).

What processes produce the different colors you see in opaque objects?

Why do you see objects and their color?

You see objects because visible light( a small portion of the electromagnetic spectrum) is reflected off the surface of something into your eye. All different colors have a different wavelength which defines their frequency. When you see a red object, that object is absorbing all the colors except for red which is then reflected into your eye.
