← Nature & AnimalsWhich consequence commonly results when nectar source direction encoding via the waggle dance degrades?
A)Reduced foraging range effectiveness✓
B)Increased queen egg-laying inhibition
C)Elevated worker bee mortality rate
D)Worsened defenses against hive intruders
💡 Explanation
Forager bees incorrectly assess the angle to find nearby nectar, because of the distortion in the waggle maneuver. This results in inaccurate communication and therefore suboptimal range finding and inefficient foraging efforts, rather than hive defense.
