Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Enclosure and contour following involve running one's fingers or hand around an object in order to identify its shape. This exploratory procedure is the most likely method BobbyDale will use to identify the exact shape of the soccer ball. Lateral motion and pressure and passive motion and lateral motion also involve touch, but they may not provide as much information about the object's shape as enclosure and contour following. Pressure only is unlikely to provide enough information about the object's shape to accurately identify it.
