Interposition is the depth perception cue that occurs when objects nearer to us overlap objects further away, obscuring our view of them. In this situation, the closer rows of students are overlapping the view of students in more distant rows, allowing the professor to perceive their depth and position in the classroom. The other options (texture gradient, linear perspective, relative size) do not apply as well to this specific example.
