← Nature & AnimalsWhich risk increases when anglerfish cease counterillumination efforts?
A)Immune system cellular breakdown
B)Predator-induced location detection✓
C)Digestive bacterial overgrowth risk
D)Thermoregulation capacity overload
💡 Explanation
Predator detection increases because ceasing counterillumination removes camouflage, enabling predators to spot the dark silhouette against background light using bioluminescence; therefore, detection increases rather than thermoregulation or immune compromise.
