The answer is B. cyan.

If an object reflects green and blue light we preceive the reflection not as separate colours but a mixture of both aka cyan.

Hope this helps.

The color appears as cyan when an object reflects green and blue light.

Answer: A

Explanation

The light that is visible to the eye is a form of electromagnetic energy.

White light consists of the electromagnetic spectrum combined by lights of various wavelengths.

Each individual light in this white light has distinct frequency and wavelength.

The clouts observed is due to the reflection of light consisting of three colors- red, blue and green known as primary additive colors of light.

When blue and green combine, primary subtractive color forms, cyan.
