Researchers have found (no מ) that at the microscopic level at the surface of the butterfly wing there are tiny structures scattered in random patterns (no ד). And that this special structure causes passing light to simply pass directly through the wings of the butterfly, without being reflected (passive hiph'il) when it encounters their surface.

Final answer:

The wings of butterflies have tiny structures that cause light to pass through without being reflected due to thin film interference and constructive interference.

Step-by-step explanation:

The subject of this question is Physics. The wings of butterflies have tiny structures that cause light to pass through without being reflected due to thin film interference and constructive interference. Researchers have found that at the microscopic level on the surface of the butterfly wing, there are tiny structures that cause passing light to simply pass through the wings without being reflected.

The wings of butterflies have tiny structures that cause light to pass through without being reflected due to thin film interference and constructive interference. This phenomenon is a result of thin film interference and constructive interference of certain wavelengths reflected from the wing's film-coated surface.
