← ScienceWhich consequence results when gravitational lensing induces mirages?
A)Overestimated dark matter distributions✓
B)Misalignment stellar parallax measurements
C)Decreased interstellar medium density
D)Increased galactic rotational velocities
💡 Explanation
Gravitational lensing distorts spacetime causing mirages; the equivalence principle implies that gravity bends light like acceleration. Therefore, apparent mass increases affecting dark matter estimations, rather than altering parallax, ISM density, or rotation because these are distinct phenomena.
