← Nature & AnimalsWhich outcome occurs when a dolphin's melon oil density changes?
A)Reduced sound impedance matching occurs✓
B)Increased prey swarm detection
C)Enhanced buoyancy control surfaces
D)Minimized lung collapse during dives
💡 Explanation
Reduced sound impedance matching happens because altered density disrupts the acoustic lens effect, which is essential for focused echolocation; therefore sonar range decreases, rather than improving prey detection or affecting buoyancy, due to improper sound wave propagation.
