An important component of the one-way mirror phenomenon is _______________________.

light

100

When all light rays bounce off an object at the same angle, this is called ____________________ (diffusion, reflection, or absorption).

reflection

100

 When light enters a prism, it is slowed down and bends, so we can see the rainbows of colors.  This is an example of _______________________ (absorption, reflection, OR refraction).

refraction

100

The ___________________and _________________ work together to help us see.  Hint: 2 organs.

eyes; brain

100

Light travels in _____________ ________________.

straight lines

200

A _____________________ is a three-dimensional, physical representation of an object or system where its dimensions are in the same proportion to the original; usually reduced, sometimes enlarged.

scale model

200

When light waves hit a bumpy surface and become scattered, this is called ________________ (diffusion, reflection, or refraction).

diffusion

200

When you see a blue object, you are actually seeing  blue light ____________(reflected OR absorbed), while the other colors are __________________ (reflected OR absorbed).

reflected; absorbed

200

The _________________(iris, pupil, OR retina) is the dark, round part of eye that reacts to light and dark.

pupil

200

The silver material of the one-way mirror is ______________ (transparent OR opaque) and _________________ (reflects OR transmits) the light off of it.  

opaque; reflects

300

With one light on, one light off using the one-way mirror film, we saw a window in the room with the light _______________(on OR off).

off

When light is ________________ (absorbed, diffused, OR transmitted), it goes though an object.

transmitted

True

300

The __________________ (lens, iris, OR brain) of the eye helps focus light entering the eye.

300

The glass material of the one-way mirror is  ______________ (transparent OR opaque) and _________________ (reflects OR transmits) the light off of it.  

transparent; transmits

opaque

400

 The shape or ______________of our eye impacts how our eye works or ____________________.

structure; functions
