Transparent objects transmit light (let light travel through them). Opaque objects do not transmit light through them.
Light travels in straight lines at an extremely high speed, spreading out as it travels.
Light rays are straight arrows added to diagrams to show the direction that some light is travelling.
A shadow is an unlit area in the shape of an object that is blocking light.
