Answer: Option B

Solution

Answer: Option B
Solution:
Any object which allows light to pass through it is known as a transparent object. The colour of any transparent object is the colour of the light transmitted by it. A red rose appears red in white light because it absorbs all colours except red. However, when seen in green light, it looks black because the red colour of the rose is absorbed by the green light.
