← Nature & AnimalsWhich consequence results when hive temperature decreases during honeybee waggle?
A)Reduced direction accuracy to forage✓
B)Increased pheromone signal amplification
C)Enhanced flight muscle metabolism rates
D)Optimized nectar dehydration to honey
💡 Explanation
Reduced hive temperature causes reduced navigation accuracy because of impaired muscle function that alters the precise angle and duration of the waggle dance signaling, therefore less effective communication occurs, rather than enhancing signals, which would need elevated energy and consistent neural processing unaffected by temperature.
