In what sense do the bright colors of autumn dupe us

"Why Leaves Turn Color In The Fall" is an essay by Diane Ackerman. The essay is written in common English.

Explanation:

Ackerman's love for science and calls herself a nature writer. In her essay she had put light on the "why leaves change color," and "How is the color different in different places." She tells that the leaves change their colors when the chlorophyll breaks down.  

"A turning leaf stays partly green at first, then reveals splotches of yellow and

red as the chlorophyll gradually breaks down."

When she says when in autumn the leaves change their colors, they dupe or trick us. The author's purpose when saying this is revealed in next lines of the essay.

"Colored like living things, they signal death and disintegration."

The leaves trick us because though they become in bright in color when they fall in autumn, showing the liveliness through the color, they signal death.
