Which of the following is a good example of visual encoding?

Answers

A good example of visual encoding is thinking about a dog you want to adopt and having the image of the dog appear in your mind. The correct option is D.

What is visual encoding?

Visual encoding is remembering what you have seen. This is like you see a bird on the street, and you passed by it. Then you remember it in the home, the color of the bird, the type of bird, etc.

The first option, the lyric of a song, that you have not seen, will not come under visual coding. The second option is dreaming, which is different from visual coding.

The third one is remembering other things by seeing a thing similar to it, which is not visual encoding. Only the last option is correct because it shows seeing a dog and then remembering it afterward.

Thus, the correct option is  D. Thinking about a dog you want to adopt and having the image of the dog appear in your mind.
