Which navigational outcome occurs when avian olfactory receptor adaptation reduces stimulus intensity in one nostril during flight?

A)Altered perception of wind direction
B)Compass miscalibration near magnetic anomalies
C)Asymmetrical olfactory map interpretation
D)Disrupted time-compensated sun compass phase

💡 Explanation

Asymmetrical olfactory map interpretation results from one-nostril receptor adaptation because birds use stereo-olfaction to build spatial maps from environmental odors; adaptation hinders accurate map reading therefore biasing flight path rather than affecting compass or sun mechanisms.
