Which depth cue is effective both from 0-2 meters and above 20 meters?

Depth perception created by input from both eyes is defined as:

Conditions where movements between the two eyes are not coordinated are described as:

Individuals with misaligned eyes have difficulty perceiving depth because:

The imaginary plane in which all objects project to corresponding points in the left and right retina is called:
