Final answer:
In additive color mixing, green itself is a primary color and does not form another primary color when added to colors. Red and green lights create yellow light, not magenta, and yellow surfaces reflect both green and red light, making option B (green light reflected from yellow) the correct partial answer to a question not fully expressed within the given options.
Step-by-step explanation:
Understanding the Primary Color Formed by Adding Green
The question appears to be related to the concept of primary colors in the context of light, which is a topic within the physics of color and vision. When we are talking about additive color mixing (the type used in computer screens and theater lighting), the primary colors are red, green, and blue. The question states 'adding green,' which suggests we are talking about additive color mixing.
Under additive color mixing, combining different primary colors will give us secondary colors. In this context, adding green to another additive primary color can either maintain the green color (if added to itself) or combine with another color to form a secondary color. For example, adding green to red light creates yellow light, while adding green to blue light creates cyan light.
If the question is asking which primary color is formed by adding green in an additive color system, then the answer would be none of the above since green itself is already a primary color. However, in the context of the question provided, which seems focused on what happens when green is added to another color, the closest matching option provided would be:
- Part A: red and green form magenta: Incorrect - Red and green light mix to create yellow light, not magenta.
- Part B: green light reflected from yellow: Correct - Yellow surfaces reflect green and red light.
- Part C: red light reflected from cyan: Incorrect - Cyan surfaces reflect green and blue light.
