Which consequence typically results when massive astrophysical objects distort spacetime?

💡 Explanation

Gravitational lensing occurs because spacetime curvature bends the path of light around massive objects. Therefore light rays deflect, forming magnified or distorted images, rather than simply altering frequencies or luminosity because gravitational effects on light paths dominate.
