Solution

The correct option is A Real and inverted
A real image is formed when the rays from the reflection of light meet or converge at a single point on the other side of the lens. This means that, the image being formed actually exists since the rays are converging. Therefore unlike in virtual image, if a screen is placed in the path of a real image the image will be created in the screen. Real images are generated by the projectors in the cinemas, by the cameras and by the lenses in our eyes. They are real and inverted.
