Attempted by 1389 students.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Answer: Visual

The blank requires a word that describes feedback delivered through sight. 'Visual' means related to seeing or sight and fits naturally in the phrase 'visual feedback on a video device.'

'Sensory' is broader and refers to all senses (sight, hearing, touch, etc.), so it is less precise than 'visual' in this context.

  • The sentence mentions a user interface generating feedback on a video device (a screen), which implies sight-based feedback.

  • Choosing 'visual' keeps the sentence specific and consistent with later references to monitors and observation by players.
