A.  the medium through which the light travels changes.

Explanation:

Light waves will continue to travel in a straight line in all directions from their source unless the medium through which the light travels changes.

A change in medium causes light to exhibit different properties. Also, when light hits an obstacle, they can be diffracted.

  • The way light travels on crossing a boundary differs.
  • At the boundary between two medium, light can either be reflected back or refracted when they cross the medium
  • This will cause the light rays to bend towards or away from the normal depending on the properties of the medium.
