In simple terms, chlorophyll makes a leaf look green because it reflects only green light. Answering in a more detailed fashion, chlorophyll is a pigment. As a pigment it absorbs some wavelengths of visible light, (red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet are the colors of visible light), while reflecting others. In specific, chlorophyll absorbs all other colors of light but green, which it reflects. It is this reflection of green light that cause a leaf to appear green.

Geneva says that the only thing that is needed for people to hear the sounds around us is a vibrating object. Do you agree with
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Answer:

A vibrating object produces sound waves. Energy needs to be transferred from the vibrating object to the ear through a medium..

Explanation:

Sound is transmitted through sound waves and waves transfer energy from the source of the sound to it environment in a pattern of disturbance and travels through a media. Sound waves carry energy parallel to the motion of the wave .

Since sound involve sound wave and energy as seen in the above explanation. We can not agree with Geneva given that in order for sounds to be heard, the sound wave produced by a vibrating object needs to travel from the vibrating object to the ear through a medium as a result of radio frequency signals that are leaking into our air causing them to bounce,reflect, enabling them to be heard in the human hearing range.
