Which outcome of seasonal habitat restriction occurs in migratory bird populations due vocal learning?

A)Increased speciation via reproductive isolation

B)Enhanced genetic diversity through gene flow

C)Stable cultural trait distributions maintained✓

D)Decline individual survival via signal confusion

💡 Explanation

Conserved song dialects emerge due to cultural transmission via vocal learning. Migratory populations rely on specific songs to identify compatible mates; therefore vocal imitation stabilizes song characteristics, rather than allowing drift, because dialects signal population identity.
