The cup reflects yellow light but absorbs all other colors of light.

Answer 1

D. The cup reflects yellow light but absorbs all other colors of light.

Step-by-step explanation:

The cup in the shop appears yellow because the cup reflects yellow light but absorbs all colors of light.

Due to the materials the cup is made of, it is able to specifically reflect yellow and absorb other radiation types.

The color we see are products of the part of visible radiations they reflect.

The cup in this instance reflects yellow and absorbs other color.
