Hint: Apiculture or beekeeping is the maintenance of hives of honeybees for the production of honey. Honey is a food of high nutritive value and also finds use in the indigenous system of medicine. Honeybee also produces beeswax, which finds many uses in different industries for example for the preparation of cosmetics and polishes of various types.
Complete answer: To communicate with the location of a rich food source using a waggle dance, moving on the comb in a repetitive figure-of-eight shaped pattern. During feeding bouts in nature, bees have to visit thousands of flowers largely scattered on the earth. A worker bee involves waggle dance that is running through a small figure-eight pattern:
A waggle run also known as the waggle phase is followed by a turn to the right to circle back to the starting point (aka return phase), another waggle run which further followed by a turn and circle to the left, and so on in a regular alternation between right and left.
If the new source of food is farther from the hive than 75-100 meters, the returned scout performs a dance that follows a figure-eight course while the abdomen is being wagged or laterally vibrated (upright down tail waving dance). The speed of the honeybee will decide the nearness of the supply.
In a quarter minute, she executes 9 to 10 full figures if she has flown in from only 100 meters.
So, the correct option is option B. Upright down tail waving dance.
Note: Bees communicate flower location using special dances inside the hive. One bee dances and while other bees watch her to learn the directions to follow a specific flower patch. The dancing bee smells like the flower patch, and also gives the watching bees a taste of the nectar she gathered.
