Hey why is the sky blue

English

"Why is the sky blue?"

Well, I was always told that the sky wasn't blue, and that it was just the sun reflecting off of the ocean, making the sky seem blue, but others have told me that it is not the ocean that is reflecting off of the sky, but something called blue light. Basically, blue light is strewn in all directions by the extremely small molecules of air in the Earth's atmosphere, making the sky seem blue. When the sky is not blue, like, if its violet or something, it is because of the violet lights that reflect from the sun.

The sky is blue because when light from the sun enters our atmosphere, mostly blue light is refracted towards where we can see it, while most other colors are not. It's reflected by the atmosphere more because blue has a shorter wavelength, so it will collide with particles more often.

Happy to help :)

The basic part of a word that is also the source of its essential meaning is called a _____
amm1812
<span>root - the basic part of a word
example: reCONSTRUCTion

prefix - an addition before the root of a word
example: REconstruction

suffix - an addition at the end of the root of a word
example: reconstructION

The root is what contributes to the basic meaning of a word - prefixes and suffixes serve to narrow down the meaning - who, when, how, in what tense
example: re - again
construct - to build
ion - the action of

So the word RECONSTRUCTION would mean "the action of building again."

Hope that helped! Good luck! :)

P.S. Although you didn't ask for it, the subject is the object in the sentence that is performing the predicate
example: The girl ran to the store.
girl - subject
ran - predicate

It doesn't really have much in common with roots, prefixes and suffixes, all which are similar in function </span> Source(s): Teaching English
