Based on what I explained in the other post, which doesn't describe the how, where, or why?

D, is one and then maybe  A? and B?

I would agree, because those don't really explain much. Where as C talks about the bees. Which explains why. But the hive explains where. I'd honestly go with B on this one because it's explaining where.
