← Nature & AnimalsWhich outcome results when estuarine mangrove seedlings secrete excess salts?
A)Reduced osmotic stress from environment✓
B)Increased photosynthetic efficiency directly
C)Elevated nutrient uptake from sediments
D)Enhanced structural support from rigidity
💡 Explanation
Reduced osmotic environment stress occurs in mangroves because active transport via salt glands facilitates osmoregulation; therefore, seedlings maintain cellular water balance, rather than increasing photosynthesis or altering sediment nutrient intake.
