Reflected colour. Illustration showing how a leaf absorbs red and blue wavelengths of light from the sun, but not green. Green light is reflected, resulting in leaves appearing green to an observer. Energy from the red and blue light is absorbed by the green pigment chlorophyll in leaves. This energy is used in photosynthesis, to produce sugars from carbon dioxide and water. | |
