← Nature & AnimalsWhich consequence results when atmospheric temperature inverts above bats?
A)Echolocation accuracy increases sharply
B)Hunting range becomes spatially compressed✓
C)Wing membrane flexibility significantly increases
D)Heart rate oscillations become synchronized
💡 Explanation
Temperature inversion reduces bat range because cold air bends sound waves upwards via refraction, limiting the bat's effective Acoustic window, therefore decreasing hunting range rather than improving hearing since refraction redirects rather than intensifying ambient background signals.
