Carotenoids are pigments that absorb blue-violet and blue-green light and reflect red, orange, and yellow light. They are responsible for the red, orange, and yellow colors seen in many fruits and vegetables.
Carotenoids are orange because they absorb light in the blue-green part of the spectrum and reflect or transmit the red-orange wavelengths, giving them their distinctive color. This absorption and reflection of specific wavelengths of light contribute to their orange hue.
Carotenes absorb light most strongly in the blue and green wavelengths, around 400-500 nm. This is why they appear orange or red in color, as they absorb light in the blue-green part of the spectrum and reflect light in the orange-red part.
well,yes it does.As you know light has visible colors when it refract it's light,Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo and violet. you can shortcut-ed as (ROYGBIV )in pattern.so when you light a white light to any material so it absorbs another and reflect its's own nature color. for instance:when you light or rays white light to the orange paper so it will absorb another and reflect orange color.
Blue objects absorb wavelengths of light that correspond to other colors on the spectrum, typically orange or yellow. This means blue objects appear blue because they reflect blue light and absorb light of other colors.
Oranges and bananas have different pigment molecules that absorb and reflect light in different ways, leading to their distinct colors. Oranges contain carotenoid pigments that give them their orange hue, while bananas have chlorophyll and beta-carotene that contribute to their yellow color.
White surfaces reflect light and heat. Black surfaces do not reflect light and they absorb heat.White surfaces reflect light and heat.

Red and blue light will not absorb the same light. Red objects reflect red light and absorb other colors, while blue objects reflect blue light and absorb other colors.
Accessory pigments typically reflect colors such as red, orange, and yellow. These pigments help plants absorb a wider range of wavelengths of light for photosynthesis.
Blue objects appear blue because they absorb most colors of light in the visible spectrum and reflect blue light. This means that blue objects absorb the other colors of light (such as red and green) and transmit or reflect the blue light, giving them their characteristic color.
Colors such as white, light blue, and light green absorb less heat than yellow. These colors reflect more light, which reduces the amount of heat absorbed compared to darker colors.
Optical storage devices are coded with areas that reflect and absorb laser light.
