In avian respiration, which outcome specifically occurs when increased wing loading reduces the effectiveness of air sacs?

💡 Explanation

Decreased oxygen arises because increased wing loading restricts air sac expansion using negative pressure ventilation, therefore reduces air flow across avian lungs; rather than increasing unidirectional respiration, this constraint diminishes oxygen intake.
