Question

Suppose you observed bees prefer a yellow flower that produces more nectar over a purple flower that produces less nectar. List two separate hypothesis that you think make about bees and flowers.

Answer 1

Answer and Explanation:

Hypothesis 1: As the Yellow flowers are more visited by bees, they will produce more seeds than purple flowers.

Hypothesis 2: As yellow flowers produce more pollen they will satisfy more their pollinators, favoring sedentarism in bees, and hence increasing self-fertilization.
