Describe the Ponzo illusion and then describe an explanation for it
What will be an ideal response?
The Ponzo illusion involves superimposing two identically sized bars on two converging lines that are themselves connected by parallel lines, such as railroad tracks. The top bar is perceived as being farther away, because experience teaches that if two objects appear to be the same size but one is farther away, the more distant object must be larger; thus, the top bar appears longer.
