← Nature & AnimalsWhich navigational risk increases with increased coastal development for sea turtles?
A)Disrupted geomagnetic field detection
B)Predator species visual disruption
C)Compromised magnetic imprinting patterns
D)Light pollution disorientation impact✓
💡 Explanation
Light pollution disorientation impacts migration most readily because it interferes with the sea turtle's natural attraction to the brighter horizon over the sea. This misdirection negatively affects navigation, therefore nesting females or hatchlings move inland rather than toward the water.
