Alens that is thicker in the center than at the edges is called a (concave, convex) lens.

convex lens

A convex lens is thinner at the edges and thicker towards the center.

It spreads light rays apart producing an image smaller than the actual object. Nearsighted people (people who see close objects fine but distant objects appear blurry) have concave lenses in their glasses to correct their vision.

Convex lens is the right answer since it is thicker in the center while concave is thinner in the center

starchy vegetables are high in carbohydrates.

starchy vegetables contain more carbohydrates than non-starchy vegetables.

explanation:

there are two primary categories of carbohydrates, essentially differentiated on the basis of their carbohydrate content (which is in the form of starch - a complex carbohydrate):

those vegetables which contain little amounts of starch are termed as non-starchy vegetables, and some examples include: artichokes, broccoli and bean sprouts.

vegetables high in their starch content are distinguished as starchy vegetables, and some examples include: potatoes, chickpeas and corn.
