Explain why we see different colors (include reflection and absorption in your response)

I honestly love this subject because its so intersting

Explanation:

Light receptors within the eye transmit messages to the brain, which produces the familiar sensations of color. Newton observed that color is not inherent in objects. Rather, the surface of an object reflects some colors and absorbs all the others. We perceive only the reflected colors.

Example:

When you look at a Goldfish, you see the color orange. But that is not the case. What is happening is the goldfish's scales are absorbing all the colors exept orange, the color orange is bouncing off the scales and into our eyes, and thats what we see. Black is regecting all colors and white is absorbing it all.
