Which process results when salmon homing streams present disrupted olfactory cues?

A)Elevated ocean foraging success
B)Decreased natal stream spawning
C)Acceleration of smoltification timing
D)Enhanced predator avoidance behavior

💡 Explanation

Decreased natal stream spawning occurs because the olfactory imprinting guides migration, operating via chemoreception; therefore, without the natural stream scent, salmon fail to locate their birthplace, rather than exhibit any advantage.
