Which of the following provides the best analogy for an electron in an atomic orbital? a. a bee moving from flower to flower in a garden b. a bird resting on a tree branch c. an ant crawling on the surface of a leaf d. a bee trying to escape from a closed jar

The answer is d. a bee trying to escape from a closed jar

An electron in an atomic orbital moves very very fast and in a limited area.
So, the only possible analogy is a bee trying to escape from a closed jar. The bee is in the limited area and probably moves very fast because it is agitated and tries to escape.

Choice a cannot be analogy because a bee will not rush from flower to flower.
Choice b. cannot be analogy because a bird is not moving.
Choice c. cannot be analogy because an ant is moving really slow.
