Opaque
There are three properties of objects that are associated with how light travels through them: opaque, translucent and transparent. Opaque objects will not let any light pass through it. Walker stated, " Our iPads are opaque. They do not let light to pass through them." Translucent objects will allow a portion of light to travel through it. You can see a shadow or outline. Max explained, "Paper is translucent because you can see a shadow behind the paper." Transparent objects will allow all light to pass through it. You can see details of an object on the other side of the transparent object. Aedan detailed, "My water bottle is fully see through. It is transparent."
