An object that appears a certain color reflects the light frequency that corresponds to that color, and it absorbs all the other frequencies in the visible light spectrum. Selective absorption describes the tendency of an object to absorb some frequencies of light more than others. But it WAS the only color to be reflected. Orange wasn't the only color to be beamed down on the fruit. The appearance of color is due to the selective absorption of light waves. But all those frequencies are reflected together, giving the orange the appearance of being orange. Some waves are more reddish-orange and some are more yellowish. In reality there are a range of frequencies for the color orange.
