Answer:

Inattentional blindness.

Explanation:

Inattentional blindness occurs when we fail to notice something that is in our visual field because we are focussing our attention on something else. This is useful when we want to concentrate on a task, and to carry it out, we have to "ignore"  all the different stimuli that are around us and that do not help with the task.

The gorilla in the study was a stimulus that wasn't important for the task, so the participants didn't pay attention to it.

Hii! I’m going to give you 2 in case if you don’t like the other pair.
An observation uses your five senses, while an inference is a conclusion we draw based on our observations. The differences are that an observation is objective and an inference is subjective. They’re important by telling both differences, because one is visually seeing something/ or knowing, and the other one is guessing.

Option 2:

Inferences are progress of reaching a conclusion about something from a known fact. Observations are what someone perceives or notices.
