What bees do for themselves the environment and us: We need to know about honey bees and the deference in honey bees. There are the main types of honey been, the drone, the worker, and the queen. Each one has their own job, body type, and roil to play in the hive and in the living environment itself. We’ll need to know how and why bees pollenate. How bees create there hives, what they eat, how they make honey, and how the protect themselves. First we will start with the anatomy of a normal honey bee. The body of a honey bee consists of: one stinger, six legs, 2 antennae, three segments of thorax and six visible segments of abdomen. The head of the honey bee contains the eyes, antennae and the feeding structures. The eyes include the compound eye and the simple eye: the compound eye helps the honey bee …show more content…

About one-thread of the human diet is derived from insect-pollinated plants, and honey bees are responsible for about 80% of this pollination. Pollination is the fertilizer of a flowering plant. Pollination accrues when pollen is transferred from the anthers to the ovules of that or another plant. Honey bees are responsible for the pollution a variety of fruits, vegetables, legumes, and nuts such as almonds. For millions of years bees have been a major pollinators or flowers and, therefore, the plants producing the flowers have relied on the bees. The goal of the planet is reproduction. The bees help accomplish this by unwittingly transferring pollen, a plants male sperm cells, from one flower to another. Without pollination, many plants would not be able to procreate and eventually die out. Humans benefit from this relationship though crops and honey production. Many of the crops people consume are polluted by honey bees. Many growers maintain honey bee colonies for this very reason. Without pollination, the plants would not produce fruit and
