Abumblebee can sense electric fields. the most likely mechanism underlying this sensitivity is motion of hairs on the bee’s body; the hairs bend in response to an electric field. support for this mechanism as the source of the sensitivity is the fact that putting an electric charge on a bee (as occurs when a bee flies through the air) dramat- ically increases electric field sensitivity. explain why adding charge to a bee would cause hairs on the bee’s body to bend more in response to a field.

If the electrical field stays the same, the size of the electrical force on the bee's hair would be proportional to the size of the charge on it.

Explanation:

The question implies that:

The bee's hairs carry electrical charges.The electrical field around the bee exerts a force on the bee's hair, causing them to bend.The bee senses the electrical field by sensing the bend in its hairs.

Consider the bee's hair as a point charge. The force between an electrical field and that point charge would be equal to

.

the strength and direction of the electrical field, , andthe size (and sign) of the charge on the object. .

In this equation, the size of the electrostatic force is proportional to the size of , the charge on the bee. Adding charge to the bee's hair would increase the size . Even if the size of the field stayed the same, there would be an increase the size of .

The hairs would now bend more since the force on them has become stronger. That means the bee would become more sensible to the electrical field.

To a fellow spongebob-ian i will be glad to , the cheetah didn't get far on purpose because he's a cheetah  ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
