← Nature & AnimalsWhich outcome occurs when a moth evolves features to distort bat echolocation?
A)Increased bat predatory success rate
B)Decreased moth nerve signal sensitivity
C)Interference-based detection avoidance✓
D)Enhanced bat-moth coevolution symmetry
💡 Explanation
Interference-based detection avoidance occurs. The moth uses the mechanism of signal jamming because it causes bats difficulty targeting them, interfering with sound waves, rather than reflecting (detection) or dampening (noise reduction). Therefore, the bat's predatory ability decreases.
