Solution

The correct option is A two points and propagating in two different parallel directions
We know that in any medium except vacuum or air, the velocities of different colours are different. Therefore, both red and green colours are refracted at different angles of refraction. So, after emerging from glass slab through opposite parallel faces, they appear at two different points and move in two different parallel direction.
