Question: A 8 0 0 0 Hz tone ( high frequency tone ) is being played directly in front of you. Then you turn your head

A 8000 Hz tone (high frequency tone) is being played directly in front of you. Then you turn your head 45 degrees to the left while the same 8000 Hz tone is being played (the geographical origin of the tone has not changed). Which of the following would occur?
Question 26 options:
A)
You are able to localize this sound by an interaural intensity difference because it is a low frequency sound.
B)
The sound is located by interaural intensity difference. After you turned your head, your head created a sound shadow for your left ear.
C)
The sound is located via interaural time delay. The interaural time delay between your left and right ear decreased when you turned your head to the left.
D)
There is no delay in the time it takes the sound to reach the right and the left ear after turning your head due to the fact that it is a low frequency sound.
E)
The sound is located via interaural time delay. When you were looking straight ahead there was no interaural time delay, but when you turned your head to the left, the interaural time delay got longer between your right and left ear.
