Answer:

All color frequencies of light are absorbed, except for green which is reflected.

Step-by-step explanation:

Light does not transmits through an opaque object. We are able to see an object when light from a source bounces off its surface and reaches our eye. The color we see is the one which is reflected.

Thus, an opaque material appears to be green when all the other color frequencies are absorbed and only green frequency is reflected.
