← Nature & AnimalsWhich outcome results when foraging honeybees rely solely on perceived landmark intensity within their cognitive maps, rather than using true color vision?
A)Reduced foraging range efficiency✓
B)Increased cross-pollination fidelity
C)Enhanced pheromone trail following
D)Improved hive thermoregulation accuracy
💡 Explanation
Foraging range efficiency decreases because landmark intensity is less reliable than color; the 'landmark intensity map' mechanism leads bees to suboptimal food sources. Relying on intensity causes imprecise spatial navigation, while color distinctions offer better directional accuracy, rather than pheromone following.
