Absorptance is a measure of the amount of light, or alternatively other electromagnetic radiation, which is absorbed by a particular substance or surface upon which the light is incident. It quantifies the capacity of an object to take in energy from electromagnetic radiation. It is typically represented as a ratio or percentage of the incident radiation that is absorbed.

Class Dicotyledones, also known as dicots, is a classification of flowering plants (angiosperms) that have two embryonic seed leaves or cotyledons during their initial stage of development. This class of plants usually have features such as leaves with net-like veins, flower parts in multiples of four or five, and the presence of a main root. Examples of Dicotyledones include roses, sunflowers, and apple trees. This class has now been largely replaced in modern classification by the clade Eudicots, though some botanists still use the Dicotyledones categorization.

Uropsilus soricipes, commonly known as the shrew-like gymnure or the shrew-faced squirrel, is a mammal species in the family Talpidae. This creature is native to China and Myanmar. Its natural habitat is temperate forests, made vulnerable due to habitat loss. It is classified as vulnerable by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN). This species is nocturnal, insectivorous and known for its peculiar morphology, looking like a cross between a shrew and a squirrel.
