Which outcome occurs when an avian species' cognitive map faces geographic discontinuities?

💡 Explanation

Detour inefficiency increases as cognitive maps are disrupted by geographic barriers, because the optimal route is fragmented, therefore navigation suffers, rather than improving via better use of familiar cues or alternate mechanisms.
