Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
What are the pictorial depth cues?
A
linear perspective, texture gradient, interposition, height in the visual field, relative size
B
linear perspective, detail, interposition, height in the visual field, relative size
C
lines, texture gradient, interposition, height in the visual field, relative size
D
linear, texture gradient, interposition, height, relative size
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The physiological depth cues are accommodation, convergence, binocular parallax, and monocular movement parallax.

Detailed explanation-2: -Any visual Information in two dimensions about relative distance that can be depicted in a picture or photograph and from which three-dimensional inferences can be drawn. This form of depth perception derives from monocular cues.

Detailed explanation-3: -Parallel lines in the environment appear to converge as they get closer to the horizon. This is a depth cue called linear perspective . The cobbles of the road appear smaller as they recede into the distance, which makes each individual cobble harder to identify. This cue to depth is called texture gradient .

Detailed explanation-4: -Linear perspective is a monocular depth cue in that causes parallel lines to appear to meet at some point in the distance. The vanishing point is where the lines seem to merge. Linear perspective not only affects our judgment of depth, but also how we perceive size.
