← Nature & AnimalsWhich outcome occurs when worker bees encounter insecticide?
A)Disrupted waggle dance communication fidelity✓
B)Increased pheromone secretion attracts predators
C)Enhanced larval development inside the hive
D)Elevated colony defense against mites
💡 Explanation
Insecticide exposure impairs honeybee navigation and spatial learning, because it targets their neurological pathways to disrupt the complex cognitive maps needed for waggle dance, therefore message fidelity decreases, rather than increasing alarm pheromones or developing colony defenses against threats.
