Which outcome limits synchronous firefly displays when air temperature drops?

💡 Explanation

Lower temperature reduces bioluminescence because temperature-dependent kinetics impact enzymatic reaction rates, therefore diminishing light production. This inhibits the synchrony mechanism, rather than enhancing other factors like luciferin concentration within the Photuris' light organs at cooler temperatures.
