Question

which of the following details supports the main idea?
a. this helps break down the sugars.
b. worker bees give the nectar to other bees.
c. honeycomb is made of wax.
what is another detail that supports the main idea?

Explanation:

First Sub - Question (Which of the following details supports the main idea?)

To determine which detail supports the main idea (presumably about honey production or bee behavior related to honey), we analyze each option:

• Option a: Breaking down sugars is related to the process of turning nectar into honey, so it supports the main idea about honey - making or bee - related honey processes.
• Option b: Worker bees giving nectar to other bees is a general bee behavior but not directly related to the core process of honey production (like sugar breakdown or honeycomb use for honey).
• Option c: Honeycomb being made of wax is about the material of honeycomb, not directly supporting the main idea related to honey production steps.

Since the main idea is likely about honey production by bees, another supporting detail could be about the storage of honey. For example, "Bees store the processed nectar (honey) in the honeycomb." This detail is related to the final step of honey production, complementing the idea of sugar breakdown (from the first correct option) in the honey - making process.

Answer:

a. This helps break down the sugars.
