← Nature & AnimalsWhich constraint results when a leaf mantis successfully blends with foliage?
A)Vulnerability to ultraviolet light increases
B)Foraging range decreases significantly
C)Prey detection probability decreases notably✓
D)Metabolic rate increases substantially
💡 Explanation
The mantis employs camouflage; background matching. Because of this predator avoidance, the mantis becomes less exposed to its potential prey's awareness, therefore prey detection probability specifically decreases, rather than metabolic changes or UV vulnerability increasing. The increased hunting success allows it to conserve energy.
