Answer 1

The correct option is B Upright down tail wagging dance

The pitch of sound produced, speed of the dance and the wagging of tail indicate the distance of source. If during this dance tail wagging is directly vertically upwards it indicates that the source is present towards the sun. If tail wagging is vertically downwards it indicates that the source is present opposite to the sun.
