Final answer:

We see color because of how light interacts with objects, with different objects reflecting different wavelengths of light. For example, a red object absorbs all other wavelengths of light and reflects only red light.


Step-by-step explanation:

We see color throughout our lives because of the way light interacts with objects. When light hits an object, it can be absorbed, reflected, or transmitted. The colors we see are the result of the wavelengths of light that are reflected back to our eyes. For example, an object that appears red absorbs all wavelengths of light except for those in the red spectrum, which it reflects back to our eyes.
