Final answer:

A convex lens produces an upright and larger image when the object distance is between the focal length and twice the focal length. Hence the correct answer is option A

Step-by-step explanation:

A convex lens produces an upright and larger image when the object distance is between the focal length and twice the focal length. In this case, the focal distance is 80 cm, so when the object distance is between 80 cm and 160 cm, the image produced will be upright and larger than the object.

Hence the correct answer is option A
