Question 3

Linear Perspective

Answer 3

The apparent convergence of lines as they recede into the distance

Question 4

Relative Size

Answer 4

Objects cast a larger retinal image when closer to the observer than far away

Question 5

Interposition

Answer 5

When one object obscures the vision of another object, the obscured object is further away

Question 6

Texture Gradient

Answer 6

Objects closer to the observer are perceived in greater detail than object far away
