A binocular cue that allows for depth perception when images from the two eyes differ
A
Relative size
B
Color Constancy
C
Linear perception
D
Retinal Disparity
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -It is stereopsis that tricks people into thinking they perceive depth when viewing Magic Eyes, Autostereograms, 3-D movies, and stereoscopic photos. This is a binocular oculomotor cue for distance/depth perception. Because of stereopsis, the two eyeballs focus on the same object. In doing so they converge.

Detailed explanation-2: -Retinal disparity is a binocular cue used to perceive depth between two near objects. It does so by comparing the different images from both retinas.

Detailed explanation-3: -Binocular cues provide depth information when viewing a scene with both eyes.

Detailed explanation-4: -They actually rely on your retinal disparity to reconstruct the sense that a three-dimensional object is hidden in the image. They’re created by superimposing two images, one of the object as would be seen by your left eye and one of the same object as would be seen by your right eye.
