    The correct answer is letter "A": True.

    Explanation:

    Light passing through a single slit forms a somewhat different pattern of diffraction from that formed by double slits or gratings of diffraction. Monochromatic light traveling through a single slit has a main peak, and on either side, there are many smaller and dimmer maximums. If the light is increased, the central maximum is expanded.
