Answer 2

Answer:

b. The apparent position of the fish closer to the surface than the real
position of the fish, is the correct option.

Explanation:

• The phenomenon occurs due to Refraction of light.
• The light gets refracted in the water , because water is denser.
• Our brain does not perceive the refraction, it traces the position of fish in the original position.
• As a result, the fish appears closer to the water surface, while it is in depth.
