← Nature & AnimalsWhich outcome inhibits foraging efficiency when honeybee waggle dances' vector error increases?
A)Pheromone signal pathway degradation
B)Colony food supply depletion✓
C)Reduced larval survival rates
D)Predator attraction risk increase
💡 Explanation
Colony food depletion occurs because greater angular divergence errors in recruitment waggle dances decreases forager convergence on profitable food patches; the decreased dance accuracy leads to reduced collective foraging effectiveness, therefore less resource influx, rather than other risks.
