The correct answer is: Blocks more and more


    • When an object moves close to a source, its shadow becomes larger.
    • This is because the size of a shadow of an object is mainly dependent on the distance of the source from the object.
    • The amount of light blocked becomes more when it is near the object. So the shadow will be larger.
