this is a really unspecific question, Its like me saying "people are tall?". The answer is not as clear cut as "Yes" or "No", and it all depends on what you mean. Do you mean that light passes through some objects, in which case the answer is yes, visible light will pass through some objects (like a glass) depending on the physical characteristics of the material (mainly transparency and clarity (and yes, these are different qualities)). If you mean will radiation (which, as visible light is a small part of the electromagnetic spectrum, it is technically a type of radiation) pass through all objects, then your answer is yes (mostly). Certain materials will block certain wave lengths of radiation but not others (like lead crystal blocks Nuclear radiation but not visible light radiation). this is, in principle, how UV protected lenses work, they block UV radiation but lets most of the 'light' radiation through, allowing you to see through them. I hope this answers your woefully worded question, and that you can now live in peace, knowing that just because you cant see the night sky, doesn't mean that your DNA isn't being torn apart by high-energy cosmic radiation from the night sky as you sleep, blissfuly unaware.

What light passes through an object?
Being a man of physics, I can say that it depends on what kind of object it is and the type of light beam or ray.
When light passes through this type of material it spreads out?
It is Delphic it is a type of rare material
What type of material scatters light as it passes through?
Glass or clear plastic in the form of a prism will scatter white light so you can observe the full spectrum of colors
Which type of spectrum is produced when white light from the Sun passes through a prism?
The colors you see in a rainbow Continuous spectrum :)
Which type of object reflects light best?
A mirror
What light passes through an object?

What type of spectrum is produced when the light emitted directly from a hot dense object passes through a prism?
Its called atomic spectrum
When light passes through this type of material it spreads out?
It is Delphic it is a type of rare material
What three types of materials affect the behavior of light?
The type of light, the distance it has to travel and the substance that it passes through.
Which type of spectrum is produced when light from the sun passes through a prism?
It is the spectrum of visible light, which has the colors of the rainbow.
When light is bounced off an object it cannot pass through it is?
There are many objects that no light can pass through, although of course, it depends on what type of light you're talking about. The name of the type of object that visible light cannot pass through is called opaque.
What can be measure using spectophotometer?
measures the amount of light of a specificed wavelength which passes through a medium Type your answer here...
What type of material scatters light as it passes through?
Glass or clear plastic in the form of a prism will scatter white light so you can observe the full spectrum of colors
Why light is the one responsible for seeing?
Why that is no-one knows. But we would not have evolved without eyes sensitive to the type of radiation that passes easily through the atmosphere.
Which type of spectrum is produced when white light from the Sun passes through a prism?
The colors you see in a rainbow Continuous spectrum :)
Which microscope would you use if the object is to thick to let light through?
A Light stereoscope microscope; this type of microscope is used to see three dimensional views of objects too thick to let light pass through.
What type of blood passes through a fish heart?
oxygenated
