Texture is an excellent cue for depth, since __________.
A) texture is invariant
B) texture is easier to see than is the relative position of objects
C) so-called texture cells fire at a high rate when texture gradients are present
D) the elements of texture grow smaller and smaller as they become more distant
Texture Gradients
A depth cue in which the density and detail of texture change with distance, helping the observer to perceive spatial relationships.
Depth Cue
Are visual or auditory indications that provide information on the relative distance of objects from an observer, aiding in perception of depth.
- Comprehend the significance of size, texture, and interposition as factors contributing to depth cues.

Final Answer :
D
Explanation :
The elements of texture, such as grains or patterns, become smaller and smaller as they become more distant, creating a gradient known as a texture gradient. This change in texture can provide a cue for depth perception. The other options (A, B, and C) are not accurate or complete explanations for why texture is a good cue for depth perception.
