If a distant object has as much texture as a near object which depth cue will weaken?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Texture gradient
Texture gradient is the depth cue in which textures appear larger and clearer on nearer objects, but finer and less distinct as they recede. If a distant object has texture that is equally clear and detailed, this cue for distance becomes weak. Linear perspective and overlapping are separate depth cues. Exam tip: when texture size and clarity change with distance, identify texture gradient.
