The dark blue spots appear when iodine solution is dropped onto plant cells because iodine reacts with starch in the cells to form a blue-black complex. Starch, which is a polysaccharide made up of glucose units, is stored in plant cells as a source of energy. The dark blue color indicates the presence of starch in the cells.
Certain atmospheric conditions make the sky appear to be different colors. Things like C02, high concentrations of oxygen in the atmosphere, and even the amount of sun shining on the mountain can make it appear blue.
Veins appear blue because of the way light interacts with the skin. The blood in your veins is actually red, but the way light is absorbed and reflected by your skin makes them appear blue.
The earth absorbs the other colors except blue it reflects.
Chlorophyll is the pigment in plants that makes the plant appear green.It absorbs blue and red wavelengths of light from the sun, and reflects green wavelengths of light.In the fall/ autumn, many plants produce less chlorophyll, and the karotenoids stand out. Karotenoids are other pigments that absorb green and blue wavelengths of light, and reflect yellow and red wavelengths of light instead.
A plant that makes blue is woad. For more information you should read "Gathering Blue" by Lois Lowry.
The veins appear blue because of the way light interacts with the skin and the blood vessels. The skin absorbs different colors of light, and blue light is able to penetrate deeper into the skin, making the veins appear blue. The blood itself is actually red, but the way light is absorbed and reflected by the skin makes the veins appear blue.
