When light hits an object, the object absorbs some of the light and reflects the rest of it. The wavelengths that are reflected determine how our eye perceives the color. Why does the human eye perceive a red colored dress as the color red?
a)The moeclues of the dress do not absorb red light wavelengths.
b)A red dress will primarily absorb red light wavelengths.
c)The molecules of the dress absorb green and blue light wavelengths.
d)A red dress will not absorb light wavelengths from non-red colors.
black colored algae is very dark because it
absorbs what range of visible light?
dark blue
all colors
green
both yellow and orange
What determines the color of light? Describe the difference between red light and blue light.
