1. The visible light spectrum includes all light waves with a wavelength smaller than that of Blank (which acquired their name because they fall just below Blank visible light waves in energy) yet larger than those of Blank (which acquired their name because they are just higher than Blank visible light waves in energy).target 1 of 10target 2 of 10target 3 of 10target 4 of 10
2. This places the wavelength range of visible light from Blank.target 5 of 10
3. An object derives its color from the light waves it reflects. For example, the pigments responsible for photosynthesis (chlorophyll a and b) reflect Blank light, which gives plants their characteristic color.target 6 of 10
4. If an object reflects all light wavelengths of visible light it will appear Blank, and if it absorbs all wavelengths of visible light it will appear Blank. If an object transmits all wavelengths of visible light (it does not absorb or reflect any) then it will appear Blank.target 7 of 10target 8 of 10target 9 of 10
5. Blank is a brown colored gas provided in the PhET simulation. Notice how it reflects visible light while all other molecules are clear and do not.
