The phenomenon described in the question is known as "change blindness," which refers to the difficulty of detecting significant changes in our visual environment, even if they are right in front of us. Choice A (covert) and B (exogenous) are not accurate descriptions of this phenomenon, and while choice C (endogenous) is related to the way our attention is directed within a scene, it is not a commonly used term in the context of change blindness.
