Which risk is magnified when a bird dynamically adjusts wing loading during sharp turns?

💡 Explanation

When a bird executes sharp turns using dynamic wing loading, asymmetrical forces generate substantial counter-torque, requiring strong spinal stabilization because of uneven muscle activation. Therefore risk of spinal stress increases, rather than feather detachment, metabolic deficits, or blurred vision, which result from very different biomechanical stressors.
