cuz the plant ate tacos :)Refraction.
This effect is due to the refraction of light from the stem when it passes from the water into air.
larger
Objects appear larger underwater due to the refractive index of water. This causes light rays to bend as they pass through water, which makes objects look closer and larger than they actually are. Additionally, the distortion caused by the water can magnify the appearance of objects.
It is refraction caused by light moving at a slightly different speed in water than in air.
get larger then smaller... XD
Objects will look larger when viewed through the side of a water-filled glass due to refraction. Light bends as it passes through the water and then again when it enters the air, causing the object to appear magnified.
A Sea.
An inlet is any area of water that extends into the land from a larger body of water. Inlets are smaller than gulfs.
The amplitude of a wave is directly related to the amount of disturbance in the water. A wave with a larger amplitude represents a larger disturbance in the water, while a wave with a smaller amplitude represents a smaller disturbance.
Water bends or refracts light, not only do things look bigger they are not where they appear to be.
A stream smaller than a river is known as a creek
