Question

On a cool, still autumn morning, Carol noticed that she could see the exact image of the trees surrounding the pond. She could even distinguish between the red and yellow leaves on the trees while she looked into the pond at the trees' mirror images. How did the pond provide Carol with these exact color images?

Answer 1

Answer: The different colored leaves reflected different wavelengths which Carol saw reflected from the pond.

Answer 2

The answer is D.  The different colored leafs reflect different wavelengths.
