← Nature & AnimalsWhich consequence arises in migratory birds lacking geomagnetic map imprinting?
A)Over-reliance on celestial navigation occurs.
B)Less efficient foraging pattern develops.✓
C)Delayed clutch initiation becomes present.
D)Increased susceptibility to parasite infections.
💡 Explanation
Inefficient foraging develops because disruption of the geomagnetic map mechanism affects the spatial memory required for locating consistent food sources; therefore birds waste crucial energy searching for resources that reliable maps would have guided them to, rather than other potential navigational failures.
