← Nature & AnimalsWhich consequence arises when a venomous snake repeatedly envenomates prey without sufficient recovery?
A)Depletion of available venom weakens strikes✓
B)Venom gland paralysis induces complete impotence
C)Heightened aggression speeds venom synthesis
D)Diminished toxicity strengthens targeting ability
💡 Explanation
Depletion results because venom production rates are limited; repeated use exceeds replenishment via protein synthesis leading to weaker subsequent bites, rather than immediate paralysis or increased synthesis rates because it is a resource constraint.
