Solution

The correct option is A green
The color of an object depends on the wavelength of the light that it scatters, for example, a black object scatters little light, and absorbs light at all visual wavelengths, a green object scatters more green light than other colors, which it absorbs more, Hence, a diver from inside water looks at an object whose natural colour is green. He sees the object as green. (A) is correct option.
