Answer 1

Question 1

Illusion is described as a process in which logical and empirical concerns interact. Visual illusions can corrupt our vision so that what we see does not match what we see physically. The fascinating aspect of illusions is this.

Question 2

When our brain and eyes try to communicate in simple language, the interpretation becomes a little messy. It thinks our eyes are telling it something is moving, but that's not what the eyes were trying to say to the brain.

Question 3

Since the beginning of psychology, the creation and testing of perceptual illusions have been a fruitful approach to the study of perception, particularly visual perception. Many delusions are entertaining to witness, but perception scientists develop them based on their knowledge of the perceptual system.
