Is light reflected or absorbed when it hits leafs?
It is both absorbed and reflected. since light is made of: red,orange,yellow,green.blue,indigo,and violet all the colors except whatever color the leaf is, is absorbed and the color of the leaf reflected.
Why do things have color?
Objects have color because of the way they interact with light. When light strikes an object, some of the light is absorbed and some is reflected. The reflected light is what we see as color. The specific color we perceive is determined by the wavelengths of light that are reflected.
What colors of light are reflected and absorbed?
An object appears a certain color because it reflects certain wavelengths of light and absorbs others. The color of light that is reflected is the color that we perceive, while the colors that are absorbed are not reflected back to our eyes.
What color of light will be reflected if red and yellow paint are mixed together?
When red and yellow paint are mixed together, the color of light that will be reflected is orange.
What controls the brightness of the color of an object?
The brightness of the color of an object is determined by the amount of light that is reflected by the object's surface. The color itself is determined by the wavelengths of light that are reflected, with the object appearing brighter or darker depending on how much light is reflected back to our eyes.
What reflected by a plant to give it a green color?
When chlorophyll absorbs light, it aborbs all colors except green. Green light is reflected as the green color seen in leaves.
Is light reflected or absorbed when it hits leafs?
It is both absorbed and reflected. since light is made of: red,orange,yellow,green.blue,indigo,and violet all the colors except whatever color the leaf is, is absorbed and the color of the leaf reflected.
What is the color of a leaf?
The chloroplasts in the leaf take up all colors of light for energy other than green, which is reflected. We only see the reflected light which makes leaves green.
What gives a plant is green color?
When chlorophyll absorbs light, it aborbs all colors except green. Green light is reflected as the green color seen in leaves.
What do the pigments in leaves do for photosynthesis?
The pigments do nothing, leaf color is just the part of the light spectrum that isn't absorbed, but reflected.
What color doesn't chlorophyll absorb?
The color of anything is either the color of the light that is reflected from it, or the light that is transmitted through it. The other colors in white light are absorbed. So, since we see leaves as green whether in reflected light or when light shines through them, green is the color which is NOT absorbed.
Why do things have color?

The color of an opaque object is the same as the light that is?
...reflected off of it. For example, leaves appear green as their pigment (chlorophyll) only reflects the wavelength of green light.
If a substance appears red in color then what color light is reflected?
I think it's mainly the red light that's reflected from the object.
What colors of light are reflected and absorbed?
An object appears a certain color because it reflects certain wavelengths of light and absorbs others. The color of light that is reflected is the color that we perceive, while the colors that are absorbed are not reflected back to our eyes.
What makes up color?
Color is actually the color of the light wave that gets reflected from a surface.For example if a car is red, a red color light is reflected from the car and the remaining 6 colors are either absorbed or partially reflected.
This element refers to the wavelength of reflected light?
Color
