C. diffractionDiffraction by description is occurrencewhere the sound wave is interrupted or interacts with certain obstructions orbarriers. According to Huygens-Fresnel principle, it is where the waves are interferedby said circumstances during its travel in the confined specific space.Furthermore, the amount ofsize the wavelength is directly proportional to its interacted slit or barrierthus, these behaviors and amount are positively correlated.Moreover, it occurs in a varietyof waves –may it be sound waves, water waves or electromagnetic waves.
