HELP QUICK PLEASE!!!! What causes a diffuse reflection?

Parallel light waves strike a rough, uneven surface and reflect in different directions.

Light waves strike a smooth, polished surface at a 90 degree angle and are reflected back at a 45 degree angle.

Parallel light waves strike a smooth, polished surface and reflect back in the same direction.

I believe that it's the first one because diffusion means that they're going in different directions

Answer:

First option is correct.

Explanation:

When parallel rays of light strikes through an uneven surface and then reflects in different directions, the diffused reflection takes place.

It is because normals at the point of incidence are not parallel to each other.
