A cartoon is generally considered to be of
low definition (b). In the context of media and communication, low definition refers to a type of medium that requires high viewer participation to fill in the details. Cartoons, with their simple lines and minimal details, often require the audience to engage more to interpret the content, making them a low-definition medium.

· High-definition media, like detailed photographs or video, provide more information and require less interpretation by the audience.
· Marshall McLuhan, a media theorist, categorized media as "high definition" or "low definition," with cartoons fitting into the latter due to their simplicity.
