Which risk increases when air sacs are compromised?

💡 Explanation

Compromised air sacs reduce convective circulation around plumage; reduced feather insulation causes heat loss because avian feathers use insulation to maintain core temp, therefore decreased regulation, rather than preventing parasitic infection directly.
