Which outcome occurs during thermal soaring when a raptor encounters rapidly rising air currents?

💡 Explanation

When a raptor encounters strong updrafts, rapid changes in airflow around the wing could lead to stalling, causing the alula (a small group of feathers forming a slot) to deploy, acting as a slat increasing lift and preventing stall. Therefore stall prevention results, rather than decreased attack angle, lactate increase, or forced molting which are driven by different factors.
