← Nature & AnimalsWhich consequence results when white-crowned sparrow chicks are isolated from tutor songs during early sensitive periods?
A)Impaired food source identification skills
B)Increased vulnerability to avian parasites
C)Development of abnormal song structure✓
D)Disrupted circadian activity rhythms formation
💡 Explanation
Abnormal song structure occurs because lack of exposure prevents proper imitation via vocal learning, meaning no template. This interferes with the birdsong development mechanism; therefore aberrant songs are produced, rather than expected species-specific sounds.
