← Nature & AnimalsWhich sensory deficit most disrupts avian nocturnal migration?
A)Impaired magnetic field perception✓
B)Reduced sensitivity to polarized light
C)Compromised olfactory bulb function
D)Loss of infrared light sensing
💡 Explanation
Disrupted magnetic field perception impairs the birds' internal magnetic compass, because they rely on magnetoreception to orient themselves during migration; therefore nocturnal navigation fails, rather than navigation via the stars, sun, or familiar scents.
