• light waves are striking the jellyfish and bouncing off of it.

• light waves are striking the jellyfish and going into it without passing all the way way through.

• light waves are striking the jellyfish and going all the way through it.

• light waves are striking the jellyfish and being bent.

Why does the arrow appear to change direction as water is poured into the glass? You can try this experiment at home.

• Light waves are bouncing as they pass through air, glass and water.

• Light waves are traveling in a straight line as they pass through air, glass, and water.

• Light waves are not passing through the air, glass, and water.

• Light waves are bending as they pass through the air, glass, and water.
