bunch

Correct option is B

  • Collective Noun Definition: A collective noun is a word used to describe a group of the same type of thing or animal.
  • Specificity for Bees: For bees, the collective noun must reflect their behavior, particularly when they move or gather together.
  • Analysis of Options:
    • (A) Herd: Typically used for large mammals like cows or elephants, not insects like bees.
    • (B) Swarm: Specifically used for a large group of bees, especially when flying together or clustering.
    • (C) Group: A general term, not specific to bees and less precise than “swarm.”
    • (D) Bunch: Used for objects like flowers or bananas, not for living creatures like bees.
