Solution
The correct option is B Acoustic
Honey bees like insects communicate through chemicals and
odors. Besides these they also use specific behaviors such
as dances to convey information about the availability and type of
resources in the environment, and the location of the same. The dancing scout bee's body generally points in the direction of the food source and the sound produced during the dance indicates the profitability and availability of food. Hence, the scout bee uses acoustic stimuli to communicate the location and source of food to other worker bees.
