Document Summary

Final is the same as the midterms but longer. The round dance no directional information -> food is within 50 meters of the hive (what this dance tells others: 2. The waggle dance: food is beyond 50 meters, returning foragers communicate direction and distance of food. If done outside the hive, uses the sun"s position to orient waggle toward where the direction of food is: the duration of the waggle run tells the others how far the source is from the hive. If done inside the hive deviation of waggle from gravity = deviation of food from sun. If the waggle inside the hive is straight up, food is directly towards the sun. If down, food is directly away from the sun: von frisch experiments, marked bees and observed what they did, distance communication. How does the first signaler find a listener: moth, moths can hear bats, beats knobbed wings together.
