The correct answer is:
**a change in the speed of a wave when it passes from one material to another.**
Refraction occurs when a wave, such as light, travels from one medium to another and experiences a change in speed, which leads to a change in direction.
**a change in the speed of a wave when it passes from one material to another.**
