Which do you think?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its B

OpenStudy (clalgee):

I think it's 'B'. I think it's B because when light shines on an object, the object’s color either absorbs or reflects the light. A red object, for example, absorbs every color except for red, which reflects back to the eyes.

OpenStudy (clalgee):

When white light hits a black object, the object absorbs all of the wavelengths, and none are reflected back, which is why the object appears black in the first place.

Thanks both of you

OpenStudy (clalgee):

Your welcome :D

B. Black always absorbs light. White (mostly) reflects light. Milk would REFLECT most light. In my opinion, I really don't think that the SKY can reflect or absorb light at all. Water mostly reflects light. Have you ever looked at your image in a pool of water? If so, that is the light reflecting back to you. So the only reasonable answer would be B.
