Which communication breakdown occurs when increased ocean acidification diminishes larval firefly squid bioluminescence?

A)Reduced predator avoidance, increased predation
B)Distorted magnetic field navigation route
C)Impaired symbiotic algae photosynthesis
D)Disrupted olfactory mating signal reception

💡 Explanation

Predator avoidance declines because enzymatic light production used for camouflage, becomes less effective due to acidification's impact on luciferin; therefore, predation risk is amplified, rather than affecting navigation or alternative communication methods.
