← Nature & AnimalsWhich consequence results when magnetic declination on migratory maps is uncalibrated?
A)Disrupted metabolic hibernation cycles occur
B)Navigational errors accumulate over distance✓
C)Increased susceptibility to parasitic infection
D)Stochastic brood failure rates amplify
💡 Explanation
Uncalibrated magnetic declination causes cumulative navigational errors because animals misinterpret magnetic field lines using an inaccurate magnetic compass, therefore trajectories deviate increasingly rather than being corrected by secondary cues under accurate mapping.
