A. Waves bend as they pass through an opening best describes diffraction.

Diffraction is the spreading out or bending of waves as they pass through an aperture or around an object. If we talk about light waves, diffraction of light occurs when a light wave passes by a corner or through a slit or opening. The slit or opening can be physically approximately the size of, or even smaller than that light's physical wavelength. An example of diffraction is the diffraction of sunlight by the clouds.
