Which consequence results for sea turtle hatchlings when exposed to artificial light?

💡 Explanation

Hatchlings use light for orientation guiding them to the ocean; artificial light disrupts this magnetic compass mechanism resulting in disorientation and movement inland, rather than toward the sea, because light pollution overrides natural navigational cues.
