Which of the following is not a characteristic of the waggle dance of honeybees?
(a) The waggle dance is performed if the food source is more than 100 meters away from the hive.
(b) The number ‘4’ is used in the waggle dance.
(c) During and after the waggle dance, the direction of the rows may change as per need.
(d) If the waggle dance is performed regularly the rows may change as per the location of the food source.
✓Answer
(b) The number ‘4’ is used in the waggle dance.
Explanation:
The characteristic use of the number ‘4’ is not relevant to the waggle dance of honeybees. The waggle dance is a method used by bees to communicate the location and distance of a food source, but it does not involve the use of specific numbers like ‘4’.
- The waggle dance communicates the direction and distance of a food source when it is more than 100 meters from the hive.
- The dance is performed in the form of the figure eight with waggling movement and the direction may change based on the location of food.
- Nowhere does the actual number ‘4’ feature as a characteristic of this dance.
