Which consequence results when nocturnal monarch butterflies encounter overcast conditions during peak migration?

💡 Explanation

Disrupted celestial compass orientation arises because monarch butterflies utilize polarized light patterns in twilight for navigation; therefore, overcast conditions impair their ability to orient effectively, rather than relying more on alternative cues under normal atmospheric conditions.
