It is caused by higher drag on the outside wing, which is producing more lift.

• A. Adverse yaw
• B. Adverse roll
• C. Crosswind drift
• D. Bank angle

Answer: (A)

Adverse yaw is at work here. When you roll into a turn, the wing that rises and produces more lift also creates more induced drag. If the outside wing ends up generating more lift, its drag increases and slows that wing relative to the other wing. That drag imbalance pulls the nose toward the outside of the turn, i.e., opposite to the direction you’re trying to turn. So the description “higher drag on the outside wing, which is producing more lift” describes adverse yaw.

The other options don’t fit this situation: adverse roll refers to a roll motion opposite to the aileron input, not the yaw that accompanies a banked turn; crosswind drift is a wind effect pushing the airplane sideways, not a drag-lift interaction between wings; bank angle is the tilt itself, not the yaw tendency caused by differential drag.
