Hide analysis

Henry: Some scientists explain the dance of honeybees as the means by which honeybees communicate the location of whatever food source they have just visited to other members of the hive. ███ █████████ ██ ███ ████ ██ ███████████ █ █████████ ██ ███████████ ████ ████████████ ███████ █████████ █████████ ██ █████ ████ ██████ █████ █ █████ █████ ████ ███ ████ ██████ ████ ████ ████ ████████ █████ ████ █████████ ██ ████ █████ ███████████ ███ ███ ██████████ ██████

Summarize Argument: Counter-Position

Winifred says that honeybees’ use of food scent trails doesn’t exclude the possibility that the honeybee dance also communicates food location. Winifred supports this by pointing out that most creatures “have several ways of accomplishing critical tasks,” and we get a specific example to back up that claim: some bees can navigate using either the Sun or landmarks. Winifred’s conclusion is thus supported by both a broad claim about animals and a specific illustration of that claim.

Identify Argument Part

Winifred’s statement about how bees of some species navigate is a specific example used to support the claim that most animals can accomplish critical tasks in multiple ways.
