Question
what happens when a pigment reflects a certain wavelength of light? it produces oxygen. that color is the color we see the pigment as. the pigment absorbs that color it changes the lights wavelength.
Pigments reflect certain wavelengths of light. The color we perceive a pigment to be is the color of the light it reflects. For example, a green - pigmented object reflects green - wavelength light and absorbs other wavelengths. Producing oxygen is related to photosynthesis in plants and not to light reflection by pigments. Absorbing a color is the opposite of reflecting it. And reflecting light does not change the light's wavelength.
