Why wood is brown in colour?

Most of the time generally when we see wood it appears to be brown due to the photons absorbed by them which are brown in color. While the color of wood is determined by its chemical makeup and its quantum mechanical interaction with light(photons).

In fact it is made up of carbon chains with hydrogen and some other elements like nitrogen, oxygen, and trace minerals.

So when there is a war going on between trees and their parasites, including fungi, bacteria, isects etc. Therefore the trees rely mostly on chemical warfare, by lacing their cells with chemicals that deter the parasites and some of these chemicals are of neutral color and the resulting wood appears pale and colorless, but some are of striking color and this is what produces the colorful streaks that follow the grain.

1.Spots on Giraffe The spots (patches) made on the giraffe are for camouflage and behind each single patch there are branch of blood vessels. 2.Wing of a butterfly. Butterflies represents some of the most prominent color that are found in nature. 3.Water Droplets on a leaf The tiny fascinating rain drops or the moisture dew scattered on the leaf creates a remarkable image before or eyes. 4.Mollusk shell The mollusk shells are perfect examples of an printed design. So the shell uses a organ called mantle to create it, and within the mantle secretory cells which produce pigment needed for the design.

Though the comet is bright enough to be seen with the eye , in places without clear skies, a pair of basic binoculars are going to be necessary. NEOWISE after being discovered by NASA’s Near-Earth Asteroid Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer telescope on March 27 this year. The comet made its closest approach to the sun on July 3, 2020, passing at about 43 ...
