← ScienceWhich outcome occurs when high gravity bends light?
A)Gravitational lensing magnifies distant objects✓
B)Doppler shifting reddens wavelengths notably
C)Refractive index increases inconsistently
D)Quantum tunneling distorts photon pathways
💡 Explanation
Gravitational lensing occurs because spacetime curvature bends light according to mass-energy equivalence; therefore, the observed light from distant objects is magnified and often distorted, rather than a simple frequency shift experienced from the Doppler effect.
