Answer 1

The correct response is:

**Which light wavelengths are reflected**

This is because the color that an object appears to our eyes is determined by the wavelengths of light that are reflected off the object and reach our eyes. For example, an object that appears red reflects the wavelengths of light associated with red and absorbs other wavelengths.
