What is the primary cause of aerodynamic lift generated by a symmetrical airfoil at a positive angle of attack?

Greater pressure reduction on the upper surface compared to the lower surface. Higher static pressure acting on the upper surface than the lower surface. Pure physical deflection of air downwards from the lower surface only. Increased air density above the wing relative to beneath it.

Correct Answer:

Greater pressure reduction on the upper surface compared to the lower surface.
