Which outcome occurs when foraging bees encounter degraded hydrocarbons?

A)Pheromone masking disrupts colony coordination
B)Reduced pollination occurs at target flowers
C)Spatial learning map formation degrades
D)Erratic nest relocation decisions accelerate

💡 Explanation

Degraded hydrocarbons interfere with olfactory coding, because the mechanism of neural map entrainment needs accurate signals; therefore spatial learning map formation becomes degraded, rather than simply changing pheromones, because the bees’ spatial memory is directly compromised.
