it shows a concave lens and arrows that represent rays of light pointing toward the lens. there are 5 of them, and they are all pointing straight across at the concave lens.
Which action would best complete her model?
A. The student should draw the light moving into the lens and then exiting in converging lines.
B. The student should draw the rays of light moving into the lens and then exiting at right angles.
C. The student should draw the rays of light moving into the lens and then exiting in a straight path.
D. The student should draw the light moving into the lens and then exiting in lines that are spreading out.

To complete the model of a concave lens, the best action for the student would be:
D. The student should draw the light moving into the lens and then exiting in lines that are spreading out.
Concave lenses diverge light rays that pass through them, causing the rays to spread out rather than converge. Thus, after the light enters the lens, it would exit as diverging rays.
