← Nature & AnimalsWhich consequence results when oscillating butterflies' iridescent camouflage?
A)Increased detection by avian predators✓
B)Decreased UV light reflectivity
C)Enhanced intraspecific communication display
D)Suppressed thermoregulation of wing scales
💡 Explanation
Predator vision decodes complex camouflage based on spectral characteristics; when wings oscillate, optical flow changes the effective perceived pattern via motion camouflage, thereby breaking the illusion because changes enhance visibility rather than concealment.
