Answer:

C. Is absorbing all wavelengths of light.

Step-by-step explanation:

Black isn't a color, but rather the absence of color. We see a T-shirt as black because it isn't reflecting any light toward our eyes. A black T-shirt absorbs all of the wavelengths of light, causing it to absorb more energy and become warmer than white, which reflects light.
