Arrange the honey-production ecosystem steps in a meaningful order. Items: (i) Honey, (ii) Flower, (iii) Honey Bee, (iv) Wax. Choose the logical source→agent→product progression.

Difficulty: Easy

Correct Answer: (ii), (iii), (i), (iv)

Explanation:


Introduction / Context:
Bees collect nectar from flowers and convert it into honey and beeswax. A coherent sequence should therefore begin with the botanical source, move to the animal agent, and end with the derived products.


Given Data / Assumptions:

  • Source: Flower.
  • Agent: Honey Bee.
  • Products: Honey (primary), Wax (by-product).


Concept / Approach:
Follow the causal chain: Flowers provide nectar → bees gather/process → hive stores honey; wax is secreted/used to build comb.


Step-by-Step Solution:
Sequence: (ii) Flower → (iii) Honey Bee → (i) Honey → (iv) Wax.This places the botanical source first, the biological agent second, and the outputs last.


Verification / Alternative check:
Any order that puts products (Honey/Wax) before the source/agent breaks causality. Options A and D start with a product or end with the source—both inconsistent.


Why Other Options Are Wrong:
They invert the source–product relationship or separate the bee from its food source.


Common Pitfalls:

  • Assuming wax necessarily precedes honey; both are produced by bees, but honey production from nectar is the classic primary step, with wax secreted by worker bees for comb construction.


Final Answer:
(ii), (iii), (i), (iv).
