Solution

The correct option is C Reflection from mirrors
A kaleidoscope is an optical instrument, typically a cylinder with mirrors containing loose, colored objects such as beads or pebbles and bits of glass. As the viewer looks into one end, lightening the other end creates a colorful pattern, due to repeated reflection in the mirrors.
