Which consequence results when a fish's swim bladder volume becomes static?

💡 Explanation

Spinal curvature emerges through skeletal remodeling because reduced swim bladder volume elasticity forces the fish to exert continuous muscular effort, thus creating mechanical stress. Without volume changes for hydrostatic equilibrium, physical adaptations occur, rather than improved sensory or metabolic function.
