As a bug drops vertically from a point meters above a bush to a leaf on the bush, its gravitational potential energy Ug(y) 1. remains constant. 2. increases by the amount of work you would have to do against gravity to carry the bug from the leaf to its original position. 3. increases by the amount of work gravity does on the bug as it drops. 4. decreases by the magnitude of the amount of work gravity does on the bug as it drops.

Answer:

4. decreases by the magnitude of the amount of work gravity does on the bug as it drops

Explanation:

Potential energy increases the higher it gets from it's starting point. For this question the starting point would be the bush and the bug is a certain point above it so it has a lot of potential energy. The gravitational potential energy decreases as it drops and gets closer to the leaf on the bush.
