Which bee does a dance?
A honey bee shows other bees within the hive, the direction and distance of a supply of pollen that it has found. It does this by moving in different directions and shapes on a section of comb. These movements are known as the 'Waggle Dance'.
How does a honeybee inform other bees about the nectar filled flower?
The first bees to find a flower do so by chance. If there appears to be a good supply of nectar, on return to the hive the bee will give samples of the nectar to other forages so they can identify the type of flower, and will perform the 'waggle dance' where the bee moves round on the comb in a circle or figure-of-eight pattern, stopping at points and rapidly vibrating, or waggling, her abdomen. The angle between the direction the bee is facing when waggling and the vertical gives the direction of the source with respect to the sun, and the duration of the waggle is proportionate to the distance.
What is a honeybee?
There are several bees all very social of the genus Apis, that produce honey. Especially A.mellifera, which is domesticated throughout the world as a source of honey and beeswax. They can be fairly aggressive especially when protecting their queen. The numbers of honey bees are on the decline for some mysterious reason. Can anyone help with info. on that?
What happens to an animal when it loses its food source?
If an animal loses their food source, in the wild, they will try to find a sustainable source to have food to survive. If they cannot find a worthy source of food/water, they starve or become dehydrated and pass away.
How do bees learn to dance?
A bee's "dance" is an instinct. They are born knowing how to do it. The "dance" communicates to other bees, showing them the way to fly in order to find the flowers that the other bee has found. The queen is not the one dancing, because she is busy laying eggs. The drone bees are the ones who fly out looking for pollen, and who "dance." The angle between the direction the 'dancing' bee is facing while vibrating its abdomen and the vertical position equals the direction to the new nectar source from the hive with respect to the sun. The duration of the waggle also gives the distance. Bees are aware of the movement of the sun during the day, so can compensate for this when using it for navigation.
How do honeybees convey information about the direction and distance of a food source that is far from the hive?
Honeybees will communicate where a food source is by doing a dance on the hive. Different dances are for different distances.
How does the behaviour of the dancing bee help a colony of plants that have come into flower?
The 'waggle dance' tells the other bees in the colony where to find a source of nectar or pollen in relation to the position of the sun. Slight variations will let the bees know distance and direction.
In radiology what is the term SID?
SID stands for Source to Image Distance. This is the distance between the source of photons (anode) and the image receptor.
When source of communication is not clear it is called?
This is called a miscommunication. It occurs when the message is not clear or it is communicated improperly to the other person.
How does distance affect intensity?
Distance affects intensity by following the inverse square law, which states that as distance from a source increases, the intensity of the source decreases by the square of the distance. This means that the further you are from a source of intensity, the weaker the intensity will be.
What is the relationship between the distance from a source of electromagnetic waves and the electromagnetic wave intensity at that distance?
The relationship between the distance from a source of electromagnetic waves and the electromagnetic wave intensity at that distance is inversely proportional. This means that as the distance from the source increases, the intensity of the electromagnetic waves decreases.
What is the size of the shadow and the distance of the object from the light source when a shadow is formed?
If you are using a point light source, the shadow's size is the object's size divided by the distance from the light source to the object multiplied by the distance from the light source to the shadow.
What process allows you to smell perfume at a distance from the source-?
diffusion
The greater your distance from the source of harm the less your what?
The greater your distance from the source of harm, the less your risk of being affected by it.
What happens to the light intensity if you half the distance to the source?
The light intensity increases by a factor of four when you half the distance to the source. This is known as the inverse square law, where light intensity is inversely proportional to the square of the distance from the source.
What is the relationship between the distance from the source and loudness?
The relationship between distance from the source and loudness is that as distance increases, the sound intensity decreases, resulting in lower perceived loudness. This follows the inverse square law, meaning that the sound intensity is inversely proportional to the square of the distance from the source.
What is the distance between the light and reflection called?
I'm not entirely sure, but I think it's the angle of reflection.
