← Nature & AnimalsWhich effect occurs when high CO2 hinders gas bladder inflation?
A)Reduced hydrodynamic drag
B)Increased buoyancy control
C)Compromised predator avoidance✓
D)Enhanced oxygen uptake efficiency
💡 Explanation
Impaired gas bladder inflation leads to decreased maneuverability because reduced buoyancy control negatively affects a fish's ability to quickly change depth using hydrostatic equilibrium, therefore impeding its evasion from predators, rather than easing movement or uptake.
