Tent Green

Tent

A tent is a type of shelter, generally consisting of sheets of fabric supported by a frame of poles. Smaller tents may be free-standing or attached to the ground, while large ones are usually anchored using guy ropes tied to stakes or tent pegs. They range in size from those for one person to sleep in up to huge circus tents. Tents for recreational camping fall into two categories: those that can be carried by backpackers and those usually transported in a vehicle. Camping tents can usually be assembled or disassembled in 5 to 25 minutes.

Green

Green is the color between cyan and yellow on the visible spectrum. It has 295–350 different shades. It is evoked by light which has a dominant wavelength of roughly 495–570 nm. In subtractive color systems, used in painting and color printing, it is created by a combination of yellow and cyan; in the RGB color model, used on television and computer screens, it is one of the additive primary colors, along with red and blue, which are mixed in different combinations to create all other colors. By far the largest contributor to green in nature is chlorophyll, the chemical by which plants photosynthesize and convert sunlight into chemical energy. Many creatures have adapted to their green environments by taking on a green hue themselves as camouflage. Several minerals have a green color, including the emerald, which is colored green by its chromium content.
