Which risk increases for chameleons when their background matching disrupts effective predator avoidance?

A)Reduced sensory input feedback loop
B)Increased conspecific communication accuracy
C)Greater risk of detection by predators
D)Lower metabolic rate maintenance threshold

💡 Explanation

Predator attacks increase as adaptive camouflage fails due to neural-feedback delays, creating a detection risk; this relies on disruptive coloration. Predators visually lock on using perception bias, therefore predators detect prey rather than camouflage continuing to provide cover.
