Which event increases when oceanic seabirds fail olfactory imprinting?

A)Decreased navigational foraging efficiency
B)Enhanced predator avoidance strategies
C)Improved mate selection precision
D)Greater nesting site fidelity rates

💡 Explanation

Reduced olfactory sensitivity harms a seabird's navigation, because they often rely on dimethyl sulfide plumes emitted by phytoplankton to pinpoint prey; therefore, foraging suffers, rather than improved mate selection if this signal recognition fails.
