← ScienceWhich consequence results when gravity affects spacetime near massive celestial bodies?
A)Gravitational lensing of distant light✓
B)Increased rate of nuclear fission
C)Decreased molecular kinetic energy
D)Higher metallic crystal lattice stability
💡 Explanation
Gravitational lensing occurs because the presence of a massive object curves spacetime; therefore, light from distant objects bends around the massive object, distorting images, rather than fission rates or crystal lattice increasing because only geodesics are warped with gravity.
