What evidence from the text best supports the analysis that human actions are related to bumblebee decline?

Question

(1 point)
• the question about how wild bees pick up viruses if they do not enter managed honeybee colonies
the fact that people have tried to breed more bees
• the study that shows viruses may be spilling over from commercial hives to wild bees
• the claim that people may be saving the bees to death

Answer 1

The best evidence from the text that supports the analysis that human actions are related to bumblebee decline is:

• the study that shows viruses may be spilling over from commercial hives to wild bees.

This indicates a direct connection between human-managed bee populations and the health of wild bee populations, suggesting that human practices in bee management can negatively impact bumblebee populations.
