What else can I help you with?
Is the pupil of your eye an emitter of radiant energy or an absorber of radiant energy?
The pupil does not absorb anything, it transmits light energy to the retina at the back of they eye, the retina does the absorbing. It certainly does not emit anything either, though aliens in scifi films can have glowing eyes! Some animals like cats have reflective eyes, but they are not emitting light, only reflecting incident light.
Light reaches areas that are not in direct light by means of?
Light reaches areas that are not in direct light by means of indirect light. The indirect light reaches the areas by reflecting off other surfaces.
What visual mechanism might explain red eye?
Often, people who take pictures will notice that their photos come out with people having bright red eyes. This is caused by the flash of a camera actually seeing the light reflecting off a person's retina.
The inside of both camera and the eye is colored black. explain the advandage of this?
Since black absorbs light instead of reflecting it, the black finish inside of you camera stops stray light from affecting the image formed on the film or digital sensor. This stray light includes light that strikes the lens at an angle where it is not part of the image AND the light that may be reflected off of the film or sensor. The same really occurs with the inside of the eye. The sharpest image will always be produced when stray light is properly controlled.
What is meant by luminous?
Giving off light, as a light source. The sun, a light bulb, and a candle are all luminous. The moon is not because it does not give off its own light but reflects it from the sun; it is illuminated.
Why are cats eyes not really luminous in the dark?
Because there's no light reflecting at the cat's eyes.
Does dull surface reflects light?
Anything that doesn't appear black is reflecting some light to your eyes.
Why Do you see objects when light from them is reflected into your eyes?
Our eyes are specifically designed to detect light. The objects reflecting the light change the property of light, including its intensity and color; this allows us to make conclusions about the objects it was reflected from.Our eyes are specifically designed to detect light.

Does a reflecting telescope gather light with a lens?
No, with mirrors; but there are lenses in the ocular that do gather the light from the mirror and make an image you can see with your eyes.
Is red light reflected or absorbed by an object if the object appears red to your eyes?
The object is reflecting red light. When we see an object as red, it appears that color because it is reflecting red light and absorbing other colors in the visible light spectrum.
Because you see plants as looking green this means plants are absorbing all other colors of light and reflecting the light to your eyes?
yes
What are solid particles that produce color by reflecting or absorbing light?
Pigments are solid particles that produce color by selectively absorbing and reflecting light. The color we perceive is based on the wavelengths of light that are absorbed and those that are reflected back to our eyes.
How do we see black in the absence of light?
We see black in the absence of light because black objects absorb all light that falls on them, reflecting very little back to our eyes. This lack of reflected light is perceived by our eyes and brain as the color black.
What type of lens does a reflecting telescope use?
A reflecting telescope only uses lenses in the eyepiece. Light is picked up and an image produced by using a concave parabolic mirror.
What color is an object that absorbs all colors in the light spectrum?
An object that absorbs all colors in the light spectrum will appear black, as it is not reflecting any light back to our eyes.
Why are dog eyes reflective?
Dog eyes are reflective because they have a layer of cells called the tapetum lucidum behind their retina, which helps them see better in low light by reflecting light back through the retina.
Why cant you see your reflection when you look through a white rough surface?
When you look at a white rough surface, the light reflecting off of your face scatters in different directions rather than reflecting back to your eyes in a clear and organized manner. This scattering of light prevents you from seeing a clear reflection of yourself, as the light is not being focused back to your eyes in a coherent way.
