A student researching bees has taken the following notes:
• Bees communicate through a "waggle dance" that indicates food locations • The dance conveys direction relative to the sun and distance • Bees can see ultraviolet light invisible to humans • They play a crucial role in pollinating crops and wild plants • Colony collapse disorder has caused widespread bee die-offs
The student wants to explain the sophistication of bee communication. Which choice most effectively uses relevant information from the notes?
Bees play a crucial role in pollinating both agricultural crops and wild plants.
Bees communicate through an intricate 'waggle dance' that conveys both direction (relative to the sun) and distance to food sources.
Colony collapse disorder has caused widespread bee die-offs in recent years.
Bees can see ultraviolet light, which is invisible to the human eye.
Correct Answer: B
Choice B. Dance conveying direction and distance shows communication sophistication.
