Brief Explanations

Albedo is the measure of the reflectivity of a surface. Dark - colored surfaces absorb more light and have low albedo, while light - colored surfaces reflect more light and have high albedo. An iceberg, a shiny building, and a white sand beach are light - colored and reflective. A black asphalt road is dark and absorbs a lot of light, having a low albedo.

C. A black asphalt road
