← Nature & AnimalsWhich outcome occurs when a bat's auditory fovea malfunctions during flight?
A)Decreased prey detection range✓
B)Enhanced social call discrimination
C)Improved wing membrane sensitivity
D)Increased metabolic rate control
💡 Explanation
Reduced sensitivity in the auditory fovea impairs the bat's ability to form detailed acoustic images, preventing effective target localization using narrowband echolocation; therefore, the prey detection range deceases, rather than enhancing other sensory perceptions or metabolic regulation functions.
