New York City rats are famous for their scavenging ability, particularly when selecting which pizzeria dumpster yields the best garbage. In an attempt to quantify the selective pizza scavenging choices of rats in Manhattan, scientists discovered that when rats revisited their dumpster of choice, 86% of rats returned with other rats from the same age group within their colony. This behavior was repeated at multiple sites throughout the borough, suggesting that rats were transmitting information about forage sites. What type of cultural transmission would this be?
A) vertical
B) oblique
C) parallel
D) horizontal
