Question

Jessica Banania · Accepted Answer

Final Answer : B, Explanation :  Retinal disparity is a binocular cue for perceiving depth by comparing images from the two eyeballs, and the brain computes distance. The floating finger sausage illusion occurs because each eye sees a slightly different image (the view of each index finger), and the brain tries to combine these into a single perception, creating the illusion of a floating object.
