Solution

The correct option is C both real and virtual
A convex lens forms a real image of an object kept beyond the focus (F1) of the lens.

A convex lens forms a virtual image of an object kept between the focus (F1) and the optical centre of the lens. Hence, it can form both real and virtual images based on the object’s position.
