Answer 1

Answer:

The answer is A. Gestalt psychologists.

Explanation:

Gestalt psychology states that people see reality as a whole instead of the sum of its parts. For this reason, it's possible for the brain to "fill in the blanks" when necessary.

A common example of Gestalt psychology is the apparent sense of motion in movies, which are actually composed of many still images per second. However, we don't perceive each frame on its own, but instead experience it as movement.
