Perceptual constancy is the ability to perceive an object as remaining the same size, shape, color, etc. despite changes in its appearance due to changes in distance, lighting conditions, etc. In the case of a tree, perceptual constancy allows us to recognize that it is the same size even if we are standing at different distances from it.
