← Nature & AnimalsWhich consequence results when shifting magnetic poles disrupt sea turtle migration?
A)Increased nesting site abandonment rates✓
B)Enhanced echolocation accuracy underwater
C)Decreased susceptibility to infectious diseases
D)Improved camouflage against marine predators
💡 Explanation
Erratic navigation leads turtles to unsuitable areas, affecting the nesting success, because magnetic orientation guides them. Turtles experience magnetic imprinting; therefore, unsuitable nesting occurs, rather than echolocation (for mammals) or improved camouflage (survival mechanisms).
