Final Answer :
B
Explanation :
Apparent movement is the phenomenon that creates the illusion of movement in movies which are actually a sequence of still pictures presented in quick succession. Motion detection, motion parallax, and optic flow are related to motion perception but not specific to the creation of the illusion of movement in movies.
