← Nature & AnimalsWhich consequence results when the atmospheric refraction alters a migratory bird's perception of stellar positions?
A)Increased navigational error occurs✓
B)Metabolic rate becomes synchronized
C)Auditory signals get amplified
D)Wing beat frequency is optimized
💡 Explanation
Increased navigational error therefore occurs because atmospheric refraction alters stellar positional data during celestial navigation, throwing off the bird's internal compass; rather than optimized flight, it induces course deviations.
