Imagine you're standing outside on a sunny day, and you see a shiny red apple on the grass. How does the light from the Sun help you see that apple? Use what you know about how light travels and reflects to describe this process

• The light shines from the sun to the apple and my eyes.

• First the light shines from the sun to my eyes. Then the light goes from my eyes to the apple and I am able to see it.

• First, light from the sun shines on the apple. Next, light reflects off the apple. Last, part of the reflected light travels to my eyes. This is how I can see the apple

• First, the light from the apple shines and I am able to see it with my eyes.
