← Nature & AnimalsWhich outcome results when foraging honeybees cannot perform figure-eight waggle properly?
A)Colony's population experiences rapid increase
B)Hive temperature remains consistently elevated
C)Recruitment finds less profitable food sources✓
D)Genetic diversity within colony increases sharply
💡 Explanation
Impaired waggle dancing prevents precise communication of food source location using mechanosensory cues; therefore, recruitment fails because imprecise orientation causes bees to find poorer patches, rather than the richer ones indicated by the dance.
