Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The Müller-Lyer illusion is a visual illusion where two lines of equal length appear to be different lengths due to the presence of arrowheads at the ends of the lines. This illusion is culturally-based and is more likely to be experienced by individuals who grew up in societies where right angles and straight lines are prevalent. Therefore, Ooljee, who is from a remote Brazilian rainforest where right angles and straight lines are less prevalent, is the least likely to experience this illusion.
