White light is a mixture of many different colors that appear white to us after being processed by our eyes, there isn't any wavelength of light that is white. In 1666, Isaac newton first proved that light created color by shining white light through a prism, which then projected the colors red, orange, blue, green, blue, and velvet onto his wall in the form of a rainbow, this is called refraction. Isaac Newton's experiment showed us that light created color. This then led me to find out why an object is the color that it is. The color of an object is based on the absorption and reflection of the colors included in light. An object is the color it is because it is reflecting that color, but absorbing all of the other colors in the Color Spectrum. For example, suppose you are wearing a green sweater. The reason your sweater is green is because it is reflecting the color green, but it is absorbing all of the other colors.
A red Apple absorbs ALL colors except red. It REFLECTS red
The red apple absorbs most colors of light but reflects red wavelengths, making it appear red. When light strikes the apple, the pigments in its skin selectively absorb all colors except red, which gets reflected back and detected by our eyes, giving the apple its red color.
No, objects absorb some colors of light and reflect others. The color that an object appears to be is the color of light that it reflects. For example, a red apple looks red because it absorbs all colors of light except for red, which it reflects.
An apple appears red because its skin contains pigments called anthocyanins. These pigments absorb most colors in the spectrum, except for red, which is reflected back to our eyes, giving the apple its red color.
Most everyday objects are too cold to emit their own visible light. They have color because they reflect specific wavelengths of light - red in the case of many apples, yellow in the case of a pear, etc. There's a Magic School Bus episode on this, you should watch it.
In red light, a green apple would appear dark or black because red light contains wavelengths that are opposite to green on the color spectrum. This causes green objects to absorb the red light and reflect very little, resulting in a dark appearance.
The color green is not being absorbed by a red apple. This is because red apples reflect red wavelengths and absorb other colors, including green.
A red apple absorbs mainly red and blue wavelengths of light, while reflecting green and yellow wavelengths. This absorption and reflection process gives the apple its characteristic red color.

red or green?
Red
It is dark red.
Carrots are orange not red and they are this color because they do not absorb the color red from the light

dark red
The singular possessive of "apple" is "apple's," as in, "The apple's color was red."
