← Nature & AnimalsWhich outcome occurs when a moth lacks tympanal organs near ultrasonic amphibian habitats?
A)Increased vulnerability to amphibian evasion✓
B)Diminished wing asymmetry at hatching
C)Decreased susceptibility for auditory camouflage
D)Enhanced mating call attractant response
💡 Explanation
Increased predation risk occurs because moths use tympanal organs for predator avoidance via detection of amphibian biosonar; the mechanism here is auditory reception. Therefore, impaired hearing increases capture incidence, rather than achieving camouflage, because absence prevents directional escape.
