Assertion In a motion picture, the consecutive frames are almost the same and quickly switched. Reason In the retina of human eyes these continuous images get fused into one another

  • A. Both Assertion and Reason are correct and Reason is the correct explanation for Assertion
  • B. Both Assertion and Reason are correct but Reason is not the correct explanation for Assertion
  • C. Assertion is correct but Reason is incorrect
  • D. Assertion is incorrect but Reason is correct

Step-by-step solution

Motion pictures rely on presenting nearly identical frames rapidly. The human retina retains images for a fraction of a second, causing these frames to fuse into a continuous motion, which is the principle of persistence of vision. Therefore, the Reason correctly explains the Assertion.
