Correct Answer: reduced in light


Solution : The correct option is reduced in light.

Silver halides are used in photographic plates because they are light-sensitive compounds. When exposed to light, silver halide crystals undergo a chemical reaction that forms a latent image. This latent image can be developed to create a visible image on the photographic plate. This property makes silver halides crucial for capturing and preserving images in traditional film photography.
