3D model of the experimental apparatus (IMAGE)
Caption
3D model of experimental apparatus. A bee is doing an experimental trial. Its route from the nest box is traced in red through removable plastic doors. In the first experimental compartment the stimuli are displayed on the monitor and plastic chips hold the associated solution (sugar or bitter quinine during training and water during test). The first attempt at feeding from one of the chips is recorded as a choice of stimulus. The bee will continue to the next two compartments for the next trials so that each foraging bout includes three trials.
