Which bending results from spacetime curvature near a black hole?

💡 Explanation

Gravitational lensing occurs because mass-energy induces spacetime curvature, causing photons to follow curved paths. Therefore, we observe distorted or multiple images of objects behind the black hole, rather than uniform time dilation or spectral shifts.
