← Nature & AnimalsWhich consequence emerges when a sea anemone discharges nematocysts?
A)Prey paralysis via direct venom✓
B)Enhanced buoyancy using gas vesicles
C)Increased nutrient absorption via diffusion
D)Improved camouflage with color change
💡 Explanation
Nematocysts inject venom, causing prey paralysis via disruptive cellular pathways; therefore, mobility is impaired making capture easier, rather than buoyancy, nutrient absorption, or camouflage being directly affected by the injection.
