Which outcome occurs when marine fish experience reduced water salinity due to unusually heavy rainfall?

💡 Explanation

When marine fish experience reduced salinity, the osmotic gradient decreases, triggering increased gill chloride cell activity via active transport to absorb chloride ions and maintain internal homeostasis. Therefore B results, rather than inhibited reabsorption, water minimization, or increased absorption which counteract gradient changes.
