Solution

The correct option is D Storage of food
Air sacs are air-filled space in the body of a bird that forms a connection between the lungs and bone cavities. They act as balloons and helps in breathing by acting as accessory respiratory organs and also in regulating the temperature. It does not play any role in storing of food. Hence, option D is correct.
