Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Whether light that shines on an object is reflected or absorbed depends on the material the object is made out of, as well as its color or the wavelength of the light (Option C - frequency of the light). The frequency of the light determines its wavelength, which in turn determines its color. Different materials have different reflective and absorptive properties for different wavelengths of light, and these properties can be described as the material's color.
