← Nature & AnimalsWhich acoustical camouflage outcome occurs when prey matches background noise?
A)Auditory masking becomes significantly reduced✓
B)Predator vocalizations become highly directional
C)Echo attenuation within dense foliage
D)Vocalization frequency mismatch induces jamming
💡 Explanation
Auditory masking is reduced because prey vocalizations blend with the static; therefore detection probability diminishes rather than the predator receiving directional cues or interference signals, since the prey adapts.
