← Nature & AnimalsWhich outcome occurs when a honeybee's *waggle dance* angle is misinterpreted by recruits?
A)Pollen source quality is overestimated
B)Foragers deplete specific nectar types
C)Recruits search a mirrored location✓
D)Colony defense system triggers prematurely
💡 Explanation
Misinterpreting the waggle dance causes recruits to search in a direction mirrored across the sun’s azimuth because the waggle angle communicates direction to a food source. Therefore, recruits hunt incorrectly, rather than foraging efficiency changing because recruitment targeting is inaccurate.
