← Nature & AnimalsWhen coral snakes mimic copperhead snakes, which outcome results?
A)Reduction of predation via behavioral deferral✓
B)Increased mating opportunities via signal amplification
C)Enhanced thermoregulation via color adaptation
D)Improved prey capture via disruptive coloration
💡 Explanation
Batesian mimicry causes predators that have learned to avoid venomous copperheads to also avoid the harmless coral snake mimics because the behavioral deferral increases its survival likelihood; therefore coral snakes benefit rather than facing usual predation.
