Question

Why can't we see in the dark?

• A. because eyes don't work in dark
• B. because there is no light to reflect from the objects
• C. both A & B
• D. power of eye is reduced

Answer 1

The correct option is B

because there is no light to reflect from the objects

We can see objects in the presence of light because the objects reflect off the light into our eyes. Therefore, our eyes need light to see.

In dark, there is no light to reflect from an object, so we cannot see things around us.

Some animals like cats and owls can see better in the dark because the pupils of their eyes can open wider and receive more light than our eyes can.
