Answer:

D) Some of the light passes through, and some of the light is absorbed or scattered by the object.

Step-by-step explanation:

When light strikes translucent materials, only some of the light passes through them. The light does not pass directly through the materials. ... When light strikes an opaque object none of it passes through. Most of the light is either reflected by the object or absorbed and converted to heat.

(I googled it) ☺
