← ScienceWhich distortion results when extreme mass influences spacetime?
A)Gravitational time dilation occurs locally✓
B)Cosmic expansion accelerates rapidly
C)Quantum entanglement becomes decoherent
D)Inertial mass becomes negative globally
💡 Explanation
Gravitational time dilation occurs near massive objects because gravity warps spacetime, causing time to pass slower due to general relativity; therefore time slows, rather than cosmic acceleration or quantum decoherence which involve different mechanisms.
