This is to do with how hard the eye muscles have to work to view objects. The closer it is the harder the muscles have to work to give the brain information about depth or distance

The smaller the object confuses the eye
15. State two differences of Binocular and Monocular
Binocular: Provides an overlapping 3D field of view/ Innate. Monocular: Limited 2D field of view/ Learned
Binocular: One eye. Monocular: 2
16. What is Perception?
Perception is the organisation and interpretation of sensory information to give it meaning
