farmers across Colorado, because of the way the pesticide works. Neonicotinoids stay in the plant as it develops, eventually making its way into the nectar of the plant, making it a very cost effective pesticide for crop farmers, but detrimental to honey bees. The pesticide attacks the nervous system, sometimes disorienting the victim, or being carried back to the hive and spread among the hive. Prolonged exposure weakens the health of the hive and eventually causes a mass die-off of the hive.…

The human body is solely dependent on the protection of the immune system from foreign invaders that may cause harm to the body. It also plays a significant role in the development of allergies in which invading substances foreign to the body are identified as allergens, also referred to as antigens, and induce an inflammatory response in either a primary or secondary immune response. Secondary immune responses to allergens directly correlate to the more severe systemic reactions, however…

I know that it seems like such a small experience, but it really opened up my eyes. I had never analyzed a book the way our class analyzed The Secret Life of Bees, and it really opened my eyes to how little I had experienced. Seeing the hardships that the people in The Secret Life of Bees went through made me realize that there are people that actually experience things like that, and I have no idea what that’s like. For example, in the book, May commits suicide and I realized…

Varroa destructor (Anderson and Trueman, 2000) is an obligatory ectoparasite of the honeybee (Apis mellifera L). It caused severe damage to populations of this species world-wide in recent years (Le Conte et al., 2010). The direct negative effect of the Varroa on honeybee has well documented (Weinberg and Madel, 1985; Daly et al., 1988, Wienands and Madel, 1988; Marcangeli et al., 1992; Bowen-Walker and Gunn, 2001; Contzen et al., 2004; Yang and Cox-Foster, 2005; Belaïd and Doumandji, 2010;…

The important thing I learn is the CCD have declined substantially over the last five years. bee has dropped altogether and have named this perception the state fall issue (CCD). This is a potential risk towards agribusiness and human nourishment supplies. The role honeybees play in our diet goes beyond honey production. These seemingly tireless creatures pollinate about one-third of crop species in the U.S. Honeybees pollinate about 100 flowering food crops including apples, nuts, broccoli,…

This abnormal behavior was all caused by King Felix and his awful trick. “Quick! Hurry! All Pollinators, go get some water and wash it out of your mouth before it’s not too late,” ordered King P, since he had not tried the honey. All of the bees rushed to get some water to rinse out their mouth, for some it worked, and they got it fast enough, for others, they didn’t make it on time. The normal behavior was back for some, while others were left with a naughty lifestyle. “Okay, for those…

In the following I will summarize Socrates ' discussion with Meno: whether virtue can be taught. The argument begins as Meno asks Socrates whether virtue can be taught. Socrates answers by reminding Meno that Meno 's own countrymen, the Thessalians, have recently gained a reputation for wisdom, due chiefly to the rising fame of Gorgias. Gorgias, Socrates says, has taught people "To give a bold and grand answer to any question you may be asked, as experts are likely to do." Athenians, on the…

elementary school, Lucero was far behind in many subjects because she was not taught what the multiplication table was and what “x” signified. So, Lucero put in the work to memorize the multiplication table and entered into math bees. Lucero went on to win many math bees. Lucero showed that it was possible to beat whites “at their own game.” This shows what kind of person Lucero was at a young age. Someone determined, smart, and dedicated at such a young age which was very admirable to…
