Question 4 Paragraph 4 contains an allusion to scientist Albert Einstein. What is the author implying by the allusion?
Select one:

Like Einstein, bees are intelligent and can perform intellectual tasks

Like Einstein, bees are known to have a keen sense of direction

Like Einstein, bees are thought to be social insects that live in groups

Like Einstein, bees are known to have a large brain
Bees are a favorite experimental creature for researchers because they are easy to breed and are considered the “Einstein” of the insect world. These striped geniuses perform intellectual feats that cannot be taken for granted, even among mammals. Bees can count, distinguish between objects like humans and dogs, recognize complex shapes, learn things, navigate across great distances and remember their routes, and return to their hives and tell other bees exactly where the tastiest flowers are. Compare that with the difficulties humans can have when finding their way around an unfamiliar city without a map—not to mention having to describe to friends the route they took. “Brain size is not necessarily an indicator of intelligence,” says bee researcher Lars Chittka at Queen Mary, University of London. “Larger brains usually utilize the same circuits over and over again. This might make for more detailed thinking or remembering, but it doesn’t guarantee the thoughts or memories will be better.”
