Why may more light fall on a plane of a form?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Because it faces the light source
The amount of light received by a plane depends largely on its orientation in relation to the light source. A plane turned toward the source intercepts more direct light and is therefore represented with a lighter value, while a plane turned away receives less direct illumination and appears darker or becomes part of the shadow family. Thus, option A is correct. The result also depends on the strength and position of the light, the material, and reflected light from nearby surfaces, so the rule is a guide rather than an absolute formula. Option B contradicts the condition described, while C and D deny basic properties of a visible plane and of observational drawing.
