← ScienceWhich mechanism accounts for the deviation of starlight near a black hole when space is heavily curved?
A)Gravitational lensing of spacetime✓
B)Electromagnetic interference amplification
C)Quantum entanglement distortion effects
D)Refractive diffraction around event horizon
💡 Explanation
The effect is gravitational lensing because the extreme curvature of spacetime alters starlight paths near massive objects exhibiting gravitational redshift effects. Therefore, light bends due to gravity, rather than electromagnetic interference, which is weaker.
