← Nature & AnimalsWhich outcome occurs when reducing blood to gill water differential?
A)Enhanced countercurrent oxygen capture
B)Decreased carbon dioxide removal✓
C)Increased oxygenated blood pH level
D)Constant oxygen diffusion efficiency exists
💡 Explanation
Decreased blood to gill water differential impedes partial pressure gradients. Reduced exchange reduces carbon dioxide offloading because diffusion relies on adequate pressure differences (Fick's law); therefore CO₂ removal decreases, rather than efficient exchange if gradients are better.
