Which risk increases when a fish over-inflates its swim bladder beyond its elastic limit at depth?

A)Buoyancy fluctuation causing uncontrolled ascent
B)Increased susceptibility to parasitic infestations
C)Reduced predation risk due to higher speed
D)Enhanced sensory perception of vibrations

💡 Explanation

When a fish considerably ascends inflates its swim bladder via baroreceptors past its limit, the bladder exceeds elastic capacity, reducing control and positive-buoyancy causing an uncontrolled ascent. Therefore, excessive ascent the result, rather than lower predation or vibration sense, which offer other advantages.
