Question

2 many ocean predators use bioluminescence to find and catch their food. some do so by using light to attract prey. for example, an anglerfish has a long, thin growth on its head, with a tip that lights up. small fish swim toward the light, and the anglerfish grabs them with its sharp teeth. other bioluminescent predators use light to better see their prey. one such predator is the dragonfish, a deep - sea fish with big, loose jaws. the dragonfish is one of the only sea animals that can see red light. it can also produce red light. so, the dragonfish can use the red light to see its prey without being seen itself. 3 bioluminescence is also used for protection. in order to hide from predators, some fish disguise themselves by producing downward - pointing light that based on the text, in what ways do ocean predators use bioluminescence to help them catch prey? select all that apply. they use light to startle their prey. they use light to blind their prey. they use light to see their prey. they use light to attract their prey.

Explanation:

1. Analyze "They use light to startle their prey": The text has no mention of startling prey with light, so this is incorrect.
2. Analyze "They use light to blind their prey": The text does not discuss blinding prey with light, so this is incorrect.
3. Analyze "They use light to see their prey": The text says "Other bioluminescent predators use light to better see their prey" (e.g., dragonfish), so this is correct.
4. Analyze "They use light to attract their prey": The text says "Some do so by using light to attract prey" (e.g., anglerfish), so this is correct.

Answer:

• They use light to see their prey.
• They use light to attract their prey.
