← Nature & AnimalsWhich outcome occurs when a moth evolves resistance to jamming?
A)Echolocation range rapidly increases notably
B)Increased bat predation pressure occurs
C)Moth avoidance behavior reduces effective hunting✓
D)Predator hunting success reliably rises
💡 Explanation
Moths evolve evasive maneuvers using 'echo interference' against bats; this signal jamming disrupts a bat's auditory map. Because this jamming diminishes bat prey capture effectiveness, hunting success deceases; therefore, moth populations survive, rather than suffering excessive losses to predation.
