I believe the answer to this one is B.

A color absorbs all light except that of the color that it is. (e.g blue denim jeans will reflect blue light but absorb everything else) This is the color that we see come off of the object. The only exception to this, of course, is the color black, which absorbs almost all light.

Hope this helps!
