Areflection

Bdispersion

Cabsorption

Drefraction

Answer:

D. refraction

Read Explanation:

  • Refraction is the bending of light (it also happens with sound, water and other waves) as it passes from one transparent substance into another.
  • Rainbows, atmospheric refraction, distortion of underwater objects, telescopes, and prisms are all examples of refraction
  • This bending by refraction makes it possible for us to have lenses, magnifying glasses, prisms and rainbows
