Which consequence results when rapid decompression causes bubble formation?

A)Adiabatic cooling exceeds vapor pressure
B)Osmotic pressure causes cell lysis
C)Cavitation erodes pump impellers
D)Viscosity increases frictional drag

💡 Explanation

Adiabatic cooling lowers local temperatures below water's initial vapor pressure; therefore, dissolved gases vaporize, causing bubbles rather than the lower energy option of remaining dissolved, because the temperature drops rapidly.
