Question

Honey bees are visiting two food sites, A and B, at 6 AM in the morning, as shown in Fig. 1 and Fig. 2. Bees at site A are collecting pollen; those at site B are collecting nectar. When bees from site A return to the nest, they must find a cell in the wax combs and store the pollen (Fig. 3). Bees from site B pass their nectar to young Receiver Bees when they return to the nest (Fig. 4).

10. True or False: In Fig. 4 the forager that has returned from the field is expressing the forR allele, whereas the younger bee receiving the nectar remains inside the nest and is expressing the forS allele.
11. True or False: In Fig. 4 the forager is expressing the BB genotype at the Gp9 locus, whereas the younger bee inside the nest is expressing the Bb genotype.
12. True or False: Compared to the forager in Fig. 4, the younger receiver bee has 2-4 times less activity of the Am-for gene, lower levels of PKG and shows less positive phototaxis.
