Mattila and Seeley (2007) Studied Honey Bees of the Genus

Mattila and Seeley (2007) studied honey bees of the genus Apis, social insects that exhibit polyandry. They established colonies of honey bees that were either genetically diverse (the queen was artificially inseminated with sperm from 15 different drones) or genetically uniform (the queen was inseminated with the same volume of sperm but from a single drone) . They found that genetically diverse colonies

A) failed to differ in any significant way from genetically uniform colonies.
B) weighed less than genetically uniform colonies.
C) were less efficient than uniform colonies at building the comb.
D) were more likely to survive the winter.
