relationship between bumblebee infections
and how close the bumblebees were to
honeybee apiaries. What evidence from the
text best supports this analysis?
(1 point)
the percentage of bumblebees infected
base on their proximity to apiaries
the fact that there was a difference
between the two types of viruses
researchers tested
the fact that all the honeybee apiaries
researchers tested were infected with
both viruses
the percentage of flowers that tested
positive for viruses and their proximity
to apiaries

Answer 1

The evidence from the text that best supports the analysis of the relationship between bumblebee infections and their proximity to honeybee apiaries is:

the percentage of bumblebees infected based on their proximity to apiaries.

This directly correlates the infection rates of bumblebees to their distance from honeybee apiaries, supporting the researchers' claim.
