← Nature & AnimalsWhich outcome occurs when a spider's hemolymph encounters venom?
A)Hemocyanin transport efficiency is compromised✓
B)Enhanced clotting counteracts venom flow
C)Increased oxygen affinity aids survival
D)Venom neutralizes before systemic damage
💡 Explanation
Compromised hemocyanin transport occurs because some venom degrades hemocyanin's copper-binding sites, impairing oxygen transport through hemolymph; therefore the spider's hemolymph transport fails, rather than clotting or neutralization.
