Daniel is standing on the outside platform of the train station. He is looking down the tracks hoping to see his train. As the tracks get further from him the two sides of the tracks will appear to ____________, providing the depth cue of ____________.
A) remain parallel; linear perspective
B) converge; linear perspective
C) remain parallel; texture gradient
D) converge; texture gradient

As the tracks get further from Daniel, they will appear to converge, providing the depth cue of linear perspective. This is because parallel lines in the visual field appear to converge as they get further away, giving the illusion of depth and distance. Texture gradient refers to the gradual change in the appearance of a surface or texture as it gets further away, but it is not relevant to the appearance of parallel lines.
