Answer 1

when illuminated with red light.

Answer 2

When illuminated with blue light.

Yellow is any color of light that stimulates both the red and green cone cells of the retina, but not the blue cone cells. Light with a wavelength of 565–590 nm is yellow, though light with both red frequencies and green frequencies, such as mixing orange and lime light, or red and green light, is also yellow, and its scientifically defined complementary color in terms of color mixing using light is blue.

Thus, when shining a yellow banana with blue light, nothing will be detected by the retina and the banana will appear black.

Answer 3

A banana reflects yellow (Red + Green). Thus it absorbs anything else.
Light source:color
Green: Green
Yellow: Yellow
Blue: Black
Red: Red
White: Yellow

Thus the answer is Blue.
