Cuddles · Answer 1

When something stands out from a background, is seen as important, or draws attention to itself it is called salient. This simply means that it stands out conspicuously, it is very prominent, or it is of notable significance.

Salient

Salience or salient features refer to aspects of something or someone that are the most apparent or stand out the most. For instance salient can be used in a sentence as follows: "The most salient feature of Mary is her height. It is rare to see women who are over six feet tall".
