← Nature & AnimalsWhich effect results when a honeybee colony detects limited pollen?
A)Reduced recruitment via waggle avoidance✓
B)Suppressed queen pheromone production
C)Initiated swarming emergency relocation
D)Elevated drone mating flight activity
💡 Explanation
Reduced pollen triggers modulated foraging recruitment because floral resources are scarce. The mechanism is waggle dance variation; therefore, the waggle's intensity decreases which minimizes futile foraging, rather than alerting about ample resources.
