Commonly, 3D geometry with transparency is rendered by blending (using alpha compositing) all surfaces into a single buffer (think of this as a canvas).Each surface occludes existing color and adds some of its own color depending on its alpha value, a ratio of light transmittance.
This image shows the results of overlaying each of the above transparent PNG images on a background color of #6080A0. Note the gray fringes on the letters of the middle image. This shows how the above images would look when, for example, editing them. The grey and white check pattern would be converted into transparency.
The input images are referred to as the foreground image and the background image. Each image consists of the same number of pixels. Compositing is performed by mathematically combining information from the corresponding pixels from the two input images and recording the result in a third image, which is called the composited image.
