Which migration failure occurs when salmon encounter polluted streams?

💡 Explanation

Pollution disrupts salmon migration because olfactory imprinting recognition relies on specific chemical signatures. Pollution masks or overwhelms these signatures, therefore preventing salmon from effectively locating their home streams, rather than affecting geomagnetic or celestial cues.
