Why do you think are blueberries not bright blue?
<|assistant|>
Blueberries get their hue from anthocyanins, a class of flavonoid compounds. These compounds give berries their blue-purple pigmentation, but the intensity of the blue-purple hue is dependent on the level of sunlight exposure the berries have had while they were growing. When blueberries are stressed in sunny environments, the anthocyanin pigments deepen and become much more vibrant, resulting in that bright blue color that we love so much. As a result, blueberries can appear purple, blue, or violet depending on their exposure to sunlight while they are growing.
