What characteristic helps an organism survive in its environment?

One word for "an organism's characteristic that helps it survive in its environment" is called an adaptaion. Spinning a web is an adaptation for a spider, because a spider can conveniently build its own home and traps for its prey. Having good vision is an adaptation for most vertebrates, because it allows animals to see and find food, spot predators and prey, sense danger, and so forth.mutation


What is the color of a positron?

Color in the traditional sense doesn't make much sense; an electron or a positron (anti-electron) is much, much smaller than the wavelength of light, so it would not influence it. "Color charge" on the other hand is unrelated to our traditional definition of color - it is more like a whimsical name. (It's actually a characteristic assigned to things in the quantum mechanical universe.) If you mean what is called "color charge" as in quarks, it does not apply. Electrons and positrons are fundamental particles, and they have no color charge.


Is an organism classifed as a person?

If color is only the light reflected off of a surface then what are the real colors of objects?

Color works by light reflecting off and being absorbed by surfaces. When light hits a surface, it reflects certain frequencies. The color you see is the frequency of light that the object reflects. So in some sense the "real color" is every other color, because the object is absorbing every other frequency. In another sense, every animal doesn't see the same color the same way. Some are more capable of seeing different parts of the light spectrum than others. Color is very much based on perception. The fact that an object absorbs all but perceived color isn't very important. What is important is what we see, so in that sense what we see is the "real color".

What are the senses that color on an object?

The color of an object is determined by the color of light it reflects. As you maybe know, white light like sunlight is a mix of every possible color (of the rainbow spectrum). Roughly said from 400 to 700 nanometer. A red object will absorb every color of light, except for red light, which is reflected to our eyes. That's how we perceive the color of an object.
