  • C. Blue
  • D. Both B and C

Explanation

Plants mainly absorb red and blue light for photosynthesis, with chlorophyll a and b being the primary pigments responsible for this absorption. However, they also absorb other wavelengths of light, including orange and yellow, although to a lesser extent. The green light is reflected by chlorophyll, which is why plants appear green to the human eye.
