← Nature & AnimalsWhich auditory masking risk increases for songbirds during road construction?
A)Feather degradation affecting flight
B)Reduced foraging efficiency near noise
C)Mitochondrial dysfunction from vibrations
D)Territorial abandonment due to signal disruption✓
💡 Explanation
Territorial abandonment increases due to auditory masking disrupting song transmission, because industrial noise interferes with a bird's signaling range. Vocalization clarity dictates boundary maintenance, therefore impacting habitat retention, rather than plumage concerns or mitochondrial stress impacting the avian species.
