Bees may fly as far as 3 miles from their hive to find blooming flowers.

• A. Some bees travel only 1 mile
• B. Not enough information
• C. False
• D. True

Answer: (D)

Bees have a foraging range that can extend several miles from the hive when searching for nectar. The phrase “may fly as far as 3 miles” expresses a possible maximum distance they can cover, not a claim that every bee always travels that far. This is consistent with real-world observations: under certain flower availability and environmental conditions, honey bees have been documented traveling up to around 3 miles to find resources. Because it states a potential maximum rather than a fixed rule for all bees, the statement is true.

The other options don’t fit as well: saying not enough information would be misleading since there is knowledge about forage distances; calling it false ignores the documented possibility; and citing that some bees travel only 1 mile doesn’t contradict the idea that they can travel up to 3 miles, it just describes a shorter scenario.
