← Nature & AnimalsWhich navigational error arises when a magnetized obstacle alters a bird's perception during magnetic sensing?
A)Celestial cue misinterpretation occurs
B)Olfactory signal masking prevails
C)Magnetic deviation impairs accuracy✓
D)Sun compass recalibration flounders
💡 Explanation
Magnetic deviation causes inaccurate navigation because local magnetic anomalies distort the bird's internal magnetic compass, therefore the bird veers off course, rather than misinterpreting celestial cues which rely on visual and temporal data.
