  • D An opaque object refracts all colors of light equally. ✔ ✖
Correct Answer: Option B

Explanation

Answer: b) An opaque object absorbs all colors of light equally.

Explanation: An opaque object does not allow any light to pass through it, so it cannot reflect or transmit light. Instead, the object absorbs all of the colors of light that fall on it, which is why we perceive the object as having a particular color based on the wavelengths of light that it absorbs and reflects.
