    A). The world of the senses is unchanging, but Platonic Heaven is in constant flux.

    Explanation:

    Plato's theory of forms asserts that the physical domain is only a shadow of the authentic/truthful reality of the domain/realm of forms.

    The above statement does not represent Plato's central metaphysical tenet as it states that 'Plato's heaven is in constant flux.' He rather asserts that the forms are abstract, ideal, timeless, and unchangeable ideas that have the ability to transcend space and time. Thus, option A is the correct answer.
