← ScienceWhich mechanism significantly alters observed stellar positions within strong gravitational fields?
A)Spacetime curvature causes gravitational lensing✓
B)Quantum entanglement affects photon polarization
C)Doppler shift impacts spectral wavelengths
D)Neutrino oscillation influences apparent luminosity
💡 Explanation
Spacetime curvature causes gravitational lensing because strong gravitational fields warp spacetime, rather than just attracting objects. Massive objects bend light paths; therefore, stellar positions shift relative to observers, and other options don't directly affect photon trajectories through spacetime.
