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. βββ βββββββββ ββ βββ ββββ ββ βββββββββββ β βββββββββ ββ βββββββββββ ββββ ββββββββββββ βββββββ βββββββββ βββββββββ ββ βββββ ββββ ββββββ βββββ β βββββ βββββ ββββ βββ ββββ ββββββ ββββ ββββ ββββ ββββββββ βββββ ββββ βββββββββ ββ ββββ βββββ βββββββββββ βββ βββ ββββββββββ ββββββ

Henry argues that the purpose of the honeybeesβ dance must be for something besides alerting other bees to the location of food. This is because bees already have another method of communicating the location of food - scent trails from the food source.
Winifred points out that animals can have multiple methods for achieving the same goal. So, itβs possible honeybees alert others to food sources through their dance, even if they already have another method for alerting others to food sources.
Weβre looking for a point of disagreement. The speakers disagree on whether there must be another explanation for the honeybeesβ dance besides the purpose of communicating the location of food.
