Which outcome occurs when a bird heavily depends on dynamic soaring with blocked air sacs?

💡 Explanation

Reduced buoyancy and labored breathing develops because the avian respiratory system relies on air sacs for efficient oxygen diffusion, rather than simple lung expansion. Therefore efficient flight is impaired, rather than improved maneuverability, because air sacs ensure continuous airflow.
