  2. B. Near objects become clearer.
  3. C. All objects become clearer.
  4. D. No change in vision occurs.

Answer

The correct option is Near objects become clearer.. This answer is correct because it matches the approved learning objective to interpret ray diagrams showing myopia, hyperopia and their correction in the subtopic The eye (biology only).

Explanation

The correct option is Near objects become clearer.. Near objects become clearer. is correct because it directly supports the approved learning objective to interpret ray diagrams showing myopia, hyperopia and their correction. This belongs to the subtopic The eye (biology only) within The human nervous system, so the explanation must stay tied to that curriculum context. The other options are incorrect because they either do not answer this learning objective, use a vague statement, or move away from The eye (biology only).

Common mistake

Misinterpreting Ray Diagrams

Students often confuse the positions of the lens and the retina in ray diagrams, leading to incorrect conclusions about myopia and hyperopia.

Carefully label each part of the ray diagram, ensuring the lens and retina are correctly positioned. Review the definitions of myopia and hyperopia to understand how light focuses relative to the retina.
