Explanation

The part of the sentence after ‘because’ provides explanation to the initial part of the sentence. The latter part of the sentence implies that the gravitational pull of the black hole in the universe is so     strong that it even pulls light and absorbs it. As no amount of light is allowed to reflect back, this makes the black hole invisible. Hence, (2) is the answer.
