Question

Very short answer type questions :
(d) What is the left-right reversal of an object and its mirror image called?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Hence, the reversal is called "lateral inversion". The perception of a left-right reversal is probably because the left and right of an object are defined by its perceived top and front, but there is still some debate about the explanation amongst psychologists.

Answer 2

Thus reflection is a reversal of the coordinate axis perpendicular (normal) to the mirror's surface. Although a plane mirror reverses an object only in the direction normal to the mirror surface, there is usually a perception of a left-right reversal. Hence, the reversal is called "lateral inversion".
