Which consequence results when repeated venom expulsion depletes venom reserves in snakes?

💡 Explanation

Reduced prey capture occurs because vesicle exocytosis, the mechanism for venom release, depletes stored venom awaiting gland replenishment; therefore, prey subdual is less efficient later in hunting, rather than metabolic changes becoming necessary, or camouflage improving.
