Shadows are formed when light is blocked by an object, preventing it from reaching a certain area behind the object. This creates a darker region behind the object where less or no light is present, thus forming a shadow.
Objects appear to have color because of the way they interact with light. When light shines on an object, it absorbs some colors and reflects others. The colors that are reflected are what we see. This process is called selective absorption and reflection, and it is what gives objects their perceived color.
Opaque objects do not let light to past through so it will not cause a shadow. Because light cannot get through an opaque object, it will cast a shadow on the side opposite of the light.
Because a shadow forms behind an object when a light source shines on it. This happens because the object is solid and light can not travel through the solid object. The light that travels around the object reflects back up and the area that is not reflecting looks darker. That's why! Did this help you?
A deer's eyes typically appear to be a reddish-orange color when light shines on them. This is due to a special reflective layer behind the retina that helps them see better in low light conditions.
Emulsions typically appear white or opaque when light shines through them. This is due to the scattering of light by the dispersed particles in the emulsion, which causes the light to be reflected in multiple directions.
Because their body is blocking the sun's ray thereby leaving no light in the area where the sun's light is not directly hitting. People do not have shadows all of the time. You need light.

For the same reason that when you walk past a lamp at night, your shadow moves across the wall. The sun shines on one side of the Earth, and out behind the Earth on the other side is a shadow. The sun shines on one side of the moon, and out behind the moon on the other side is a shadow.
The sun emits light waves, these light waves hit you and are reflected away (and also absorbed) from their destination, which would have been the objects behind you.

der, cause u got poo on it
no its because the sun shines a strong light on it and only lights up some of the moon then everything moves or spins round and the "shadow" image changes

Shadows are caused by objects or people or many other things. When the sun shines on the Earth, you see sunlight. When the sun shines on an object, the sunlight cannot pass through the object, so a dark area behind the object, called a shadow, is created. This area appears dark because there is no light shining on it. Depending on how high the sun is in the sky, your shadow could be very long. When the sun is low in the sky, a single beam of light travels almost parallel to the earth, meaning the sun beam travels farther before it hits the earth. This also means that any absences of light are much larger.
Materials form shadows because they interact with light. When light shines on a material, it can either be absorbed, transmitted, or reflected. The formation of shadows occurs when an object blocks the path of light, preventing it from reaching a surface.
