看不懂为什么要选A啊,题目的意思是说下卵的数目是固定的是吧,但为什么选A呢

Parasitic wasps lay their eggs directly into theeggs of various host insects in exactly the right numbers for any suitable sizeof host egg.  If they laid too many eggsin a host egg, the developing wasp larvae would compete with each other to thedeath for nutrients and space.  If toofew eggs were laid, portions of the host egg would decay, killing the wasplarvae.

Which of the following conclusions can properly bedrawn from the information above?


(A) The size of the smallest host egg that a waspcould theoretically parasitize can be determined from the wasp's egg-layingbehavior.
(B) Host insects lack any effective defensesagainst the form of predation practiced by parasitic wasps.

(C) Parasitic wasps learn from experience how manyeggs to lay into the eggs of different host species.

(D) Failure to lay enough eggs would lead to thedeath of the developing wasp larvae more quickly than would laying too manyeggs.

(E) Parasitic wasps use visual clues to calculatethe size of a host egg.

答案是C么?

A.The size of the smallest host egg that a waspcould theoretically parasitize can be determined from the wasp's egg-laying behavior.
此项说的是size, 而不是number,和题干没有关系. 任何合适的size都适用。

“Parasitic wasps lay their eggs directly into the eggs of various host insects in exactly the right numbers for any suitable sizeof host egg. ”

This is a must be true type of question.

A is the correct answer. The stimulus says "arasitic wasps lay their eggs directly into the eggs of various host insects in exactly the right numbers for any suitable size of host egg." If so, the wasp can adjust the number of eggs laid according to the size of the host egg.  So you simply sit next to the host eggs and count how many eggs the parasitic wasp lays. Make a chart and compare. The host eggs receiving the lowest amount of parasit eggs would be the smallest host egg.
