Correct Answer: reflect all the light that reaches them


Solution : The correct option is reflect all the light that reaches them.

In bright sunlight, white clothing seems cooler than black because it reflects more of the sunlight than black clothing. A considerable fraction of the sunlight is reflected away from the body by white fabric, limiting the amount of heat absorbed. Contrarily, black clothing absorbs more sunlight, raising the body's temperature and making one feel warmer.
