Question:

Why does orange juice look yellow but tastes like oranges?


Answers:
it looks orange. perhaps you are having vision problems.

About 80% of taste is smell, if you search online you can find different tests to show that, like this one:
Block your nose with a clothes peg or something, and see if you can tell the difference between tea or coffee, or grated apple or grated onion.
The tongue and throat have lots of taste receptors, and they determine if we're tasting sweet, sour(acidic), salt, bitter or unami (meat/protein). These are only a small part of what we talk about when we describe taste - it's a lot more about smell and texture too.
? Why is planet earth called earth? all the others are named after mythical figures.?
Earth is the only planet whose name is not derived from Greek/Roman mythology. Earth comes from Old English and Germanic. In Roman Mythology, the goddess of the Earth was Tellus - the fertile soil, while the Greek goddes was Gaia, terra mater - Mother Earth.

Because of the pulp

Orange juice tastes like Oranges because it comes from oranges.
That aside, the juice is yellow, but the fleshy cellular material that the Orange is internally made of is pigmented orange in color, and it is this what is visible, and also can sometimes contribute to the colour when squeezed. Some types of Orange juice, such as mandarin, are actually more orange in color, so it depends upon what type of orange the juice is extracted from. The yellow color is the average color obtained from the varieties of orange used to make the juice.

The juice of the orange is the same colour as the fruit. In fact, the familiar bright orange color is a result of an orange dye applied to the skin. Oranges in their true color are yellow and green. It would be far healthier if the consumer could grow accustomed to what would appear to be an aesthetically unappetizing orange. Look for thin skin, heavy fruit, and store in the refrigerator.
