Which structural change results when air sacs rupture in bird wings?

💡 Explanation

A rupture prevents proper wing inflation, inhibiting airflow attachment to the wing. This is because the mechanism of ‘Boundary Layer Transition Control’ requires stable air pressure; therefore, lift is reduced, rather than enhanced buoyancy, due to air loss.
