Which 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.
