Convex lens: 1 Mark

Convex lens: A converging lens can produce both virtual and real image. It depends on the position of the object placed in front of the lens.
Concave lens: A diverging lens can only produce a virtual image. After refraction from the lens, the rays of light never meet.
Use of convex lens: A refracting telescope uses two convex lenses.
Use of concave lens: Most high-quality cameras, telescopes and binoculars use concave lenses to improve the quality of the images they provide.
