When light hits a leaf, the chlorophyll in the leaf absorbs the light energy. This energy is then used in the process of photosynthesis to convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen. The glucose serves as food for the plant, while the oxygen is released into the environment.
When light energy strikes a leaf, some of it is absorbed by pigments in the leaf for photosynthesis, some is reflected, and some is transmitted through the leaf. The absorbed light energy is converted into chemical energy by the leaf for use in metabolic processes.
When green light shines on a green leaf, the leaf absorbs most of the green light and reflects some of it, giving the leaf its green color. Red light is not absorbed as efficiently by the leaf, so it gets reflected, making the leaf appear green under white light.
When light strikes a green leaf, the leaf absorbs red and blue wavelengths of light while reflecting green wavelengths. The absorbed light is used in the process of photosynthesis to convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen, which the plant uses for energy and growth. The green pigment chlorophyll in the leaf is responsible for absorbing the light and carrying out photosynthesis.
When green and red light shine on a green leaf, the green light is mostly absorbed by chlorophyll for photosynthesis. The red light is less efficiently absorbed, so some is reflected back, leading to the leaf appearing green to our eyes.
The green light would be reflected, but the red light would be absorbed. ---Ryan Wang---
the leaf reflects on the light so it prevents it to burn (fire)

The light sctters into a spectrum.
It shines by the light.
when light hits a rough surface it scattters.
When a straight light ray hits a smooth mirror, the regular reflection happens.
It is either transmitted or reflected. Often, different portions of the light do both.
it goes nowhere
it reflects
The light reflects or refracts on hitting the medium.
