DENDROLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Within that wheel the colour an object appears to be is the colour complementary to the one it most strongly absorbs. As such, plants look green because they absorb red light most efficiently and the green light is reflected.

Detailed explanation-2: -The green pigment in leaves is chlorophyll, which absorbs red and blue light from sunlight. Therefore, the light the leaves reflect is diminished in red and blue and appears green. The molecules of chlorophyll are large (C55H70MgN4O6). They are not soluble in the aqueous solution that fills plant cells.

Detailed explanation-3: -Chlorophyll, the green pigment common to all photosynthetic cells, absorbs all wavelengths of visible light except green, which it reflects. This is why plants appear green to us.
